“…Large universities exist in a highly regulated environment, which enforces a rather rigid management architecture, as reported by Albats et al (2022). This paper simulates the uptake of innovations from lab researchers up the hierarchical managerial decision pathway to a senior management decision in a large university.…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;">To investigate successful technology transfer, the potential path of innovations from the university research bench to the knowledge recipient is modelled. Universities exist in highly regulated environments and the initial path of decision-making is a hierarchical model and where decisions flow upward from manager to manager until a small number of candidate innovations for commercialization remain. These are then routed for further processing to the link connecting to the knowledge recipient, the Technology Transfer Office (TTO). In the TTO, a hierarchical decision-making model can be acceptable in terms of outcomes, but ambidextrous co-operative team structures are much superior in cases where staff have good insight and decision-making abilities. This report represents the first Structured Equation Model investigation of the management architecture of a TTO.</span></p>

“…Esta constatação encontra amparo em outros estudos, tais como de Albats et al (2022), Kettunen et al (2022) e Alieva e Powell (2022), que evidenciam situações semelhantes em outros países e também em organizações de diferentes setores econômicos. A disponibilidade de novas tecnologias virtuais e digitais, no âmbito da gestão do conhecimento, é insuficiente, por si só, de alcançar este objetivo.…”

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as tecnologias digitais utilizadas no processo de gestão do conhecimento no setor de marketing de uma instituição de ensino superior de grande porte do Sul do Brasil. Juntamente, busca-se identificar possíveis pontos de melhoria na prática observada e a proposta teórica desenvolvida no decorrer do estudo. Os dados empíricos foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e complementados com o levantamento documental e observação participante in loco. Como principais resultados, destaca-se que foi identificado um espaço potencial para capacitação dos profissionais sobre a utilização das ferramentas da Web 2.0 e ferramentas colaborativas, a fim de obterem maior proveito das funcionalidades das mesmas.

“…Notably, Tootell et al (2020) have suggested that opportunistic behavior poses a significant obstacle to knowledge creation in such collaborations. Lastly, as digitalization continues to advance, intermediary institutions in the UI nexus are undergoing a transformation from physical forms to virtual and digital formats (Albats et al, 2022). This shift reflects the evolving landscape of UI collaborations in the context of digital developments.…”

PurposeUniversity–industry (UI) collaboration is essential for knowledge and technology exchange between higher education institutions and industries, enabling enterprises to accelerate innovation. However, few studies have investigated the collaborative innovation mechanism through which UI collaboration can enhance the accumulation of firms' intellectual capital (IC) and how this, in turn, affects their innovation-driven development.Design/methodology/approachDrawing from the knowledge management and collaborative innovation theory, this research proposes a theoretical framework of the inter-organization relationship between enterprises and universities to investigate the influence mechanism of UI collaboration, including academic engagement and commercialization, on corporate performance as well as the mediating role of IC by employing survey that covers 177 UI collaborations.FindingsEmpirical results show that human capital and relational capital fully mediate the relationship between academic engagement UI collaboration and corporate economic performance, while human capital partially mediates the relationship between commercialization UI collaboration and corporate economic performance. Additionally, structural capital and relational capital partially mediate the relationship between academic engagement and corporate innovation performance, while structural capital fully mediates the relationship between commercialization and corporate innovation performance.Originality/valueThis study empirically investigates how academic engagement and commercialization impact corporate performance (i.e. innovation dimension or economic dimension). It uncovers this relationship's underlying mechanism by documenting the IC's mediating impact.
