    2023
     | Durban University of...
    Higher education institutions (HEIs) must adapt to the demands of the digital revolution and play a bigger part in the ecosystems and economics of innovation. HEIs and policymakers now need to reconsider how they should be creating entrepreneurial innovation systems to support a robust global economy and a better world. The objective of this article is to describe the socio-institutional and techno-economic innovation components of innovation systems. The development of a theoretical framework for constructing a healthy innovation ecosystem at HEIs will be guided by an analysis of the already available literature and practical responses to the issues. The methodology followed a systematic review approach that considered articles found within the google scholar website. According to the research cited in this article, HEIs must comprehend how innovation systems affect their innovation to conduct research, innovate, and commercialise. The ramifications of this research emphasise how crucial it is to forge connections between academic universities and commercial enterprises as part of formulating a roadmap for developing robust support systems for research, innovation, and commercialization.

    Challenges associated with research management and administration in universities
    2023
     | Durban University of...
    Higher education institutions (HEI) face several obstacles because of the digital revolution that must be solved for them to play a more and bigger part in innovation ecosystems and economies. Therefore, HEIs and policymakers are always in need of a research administrative structure that is mainly favorable and creates an atmosphere where researchers can generate high-quality research outputs. This study aims to outline the problems that university research management and administration face when trying to promote research, innovation, and commercialization. There will be a study of the existing literature to propose a theory (The Triple Helix Model) that is relevant to this study. The study followed a scoping review of literature that is relevant to the subject matter. Practical answers to the questions will then be used in this framework. According to the research cited in this article, HEIs must set up strategic structures and activities to advise policymakers on how to frame robust support systems for research, innovation, and commercialization.
