IMPLEMENTATION OF THE UNIVERSITY, INDUSTRY AND GOVERNMENT COLLABORATION STRATEGY ON BUILDING OPEN INNOVATION FOR PUBLIC SERVICES

Abstract

To achieve open innovation within the framework of public services, universities, industry and government need to develop a collaboration strategy. There are many benefits of collaboration such as reduced costs, multidisciplinary, collaborator reputation and expertise. The problem of this research is how to implement a university-industry-government collaboration strategy to build open innovation for public services. Many factors interact and influence policy implementation as a dynamic process. The Triple Helix model which adopts a spiral (versus traditional linear) innovation model captures some of the interrelationships between institutional arrangements at different stages of knowledge capitalization. This study uses a qualitative approach to understand the social interaction among universities, industries and government. The data for this research was collected through the study of document study such as magazines and the internet (web) at five private universities in the top 100 clusters in Region 6 of Higher Education Service Institution (LLDIKTI), Central Java. The implementation of the collaboration strategy of University, Industry and Government required greater commitment from the four main actors in the national innovation system. It is recommended that the government continue to develop the implementation of open innovation collaboration strategies for public services and foster the trust between universities and industry.
