The Triple Helix Model for the Conceptual Mechanism of Cooperation between Higher Education and Business: The Regional Aspect

Abstract

Single-industry regions, common to all industrially developed countries, need to overcome the economic crises. We assume that it is possible to achieve this goal based on new forms of cooperation between the main participants: business, state, education, and science. Based on the triple helix model, the study develops a mechanism for cooperation between higher education and business in depressed single-industry regions. The model was tested on the example of the Republic of Kazakhstan. We use the methodological principles of logical, statistical analysis and synthesis. To increase the impact of universities on the national economic growth, we propose a cooperation mechanism based on the Triple Helix model. This model is adapted to the specificity of single-industry and depressed regions, where regional universities play a dominant role as a source of innovation and innovative synergy for the cooperation of partners involved. Simultaneously, the creation of new forms of cooperation between higher education and business leads to the acceleration of social and economic development of regions. The mechanism of the proposed triple helix model aims to encourage all participants to generate innovations, provide high-quality educational services, conduct research and fill business orders. Local and state authorities in the field of economic management can use the results and conclusions of the survey for creating regional development programmes.

State asset management paradigm in the quasi-public sector and environmental sustainability: Insights from the Republic of Kazakhstan

“…We justified the application of the triple helix model in forming a conceptual mechanism aimed at the interaction of the prominent participants: business, government, education, and science, which correlates with (Baimuratov et al, 2020). In this study, we believe it is correct to use and test the methodology of the above-mentioned conceptual approach for public-private interaction based on the corporate foresight toolkit.…”

“…This concern and the formation of a paradigm of sustainability are based on the fact of environmental destruction and the catastrophe that threatens all of humanity. In this regard, innovations in the sphere of macroeconomic and environmental parameters (Shan et al, 2021;Ojekemi et al, 2022), production and economy (Schaltegger et al, 2012;Baimuratov et al, 2020;Yizhe et al, 2020), environmental management, recycling of production (Adebayo, 2022a;Adebayo, 2022b;Du et al, 2022), environmental ecology (Frazier et al, 2019;Valko, 2021a;Leigh and Li, 2015;Piscitelli and D'Uggento, 2022), production of ecological products and waste processing (Adebayo et al, 2022;Akadiri et al, 2022;Hossain et al, 2022), urban development (Trencher and Karvonen, 2017;Krupkin and Gorodnova, 2018;Dixon and Brears, 2021), education for sustainable development (Berchin et al, 2012;Shutaleva et al, 2020b;Valko, 2021b), improvement of the welfare of the population (Pissourios, 2013;Mendoza-Cavazos and Leal Filho, 2019;Shutaleva et al, 2022), preservation of cultural traditions, and mutual respect of members of society (Alaimo, 2018;Loginov, 2019;Bakeeva and Biricheva, 2021).…”

“…The key indicator of the effectiveness of public administration is its impact on the population's quality of life (Baimuratov et al, 2020;Vasiliev and Sushko, 2021;Zhanbayev et al, 2021). The ability to apply country experience and, in general, international trends in public asset management in "transition" countries depends on many factors that influence the development of these countries and specific national and international forces (So, 2005;Roje and Redmayne, 2021).…”

Analysis of the Scientific Potential and Possibilities of Improving the Quality of Life in Monotowns on the Example of Arkalyk Cities, Rudny and Zhezkazgan of the Republic of Kazakhstan

“…В 2020 г. в статье [12] была обоснована необходимость разработки механизма, с помощью которого могут быть решены проблемы моногородов, основанного на адаптированной модели тройной спирали, предусматривающей диффузию инноваций в рамках взаимодействия партнеров (бизнеса, государства, образования и науки). Согласно проведенному исследованию, разработанные модели и механизмы апробированы на примере ВУЗа моногоро-да Жезказгана.…”

“…Жезказган -третий по численности в Карагандинской области с населением на 01. 12 В то же время можно сделать вывод о наличии научного потенциала университетской науки по исследованию региональных проблем межотраслевого характера. Важность развития региональной науки как раз и заключается в возможности совмещения межотраслевых подходов к инновациям с отраслевыми системами.…”
