Research on the Construction of School-Enterprise Cooperation Model Based on the Perspective of Knowledge Transfer “Quintuple Helix Mode”

Abstract

School-enterprise cooperation is an important way and support for industrialization of science and technology production. It’s not only beneficial to the scientific and technological output of universities, but also to improve firms’ innovation performance and financial performance. However, there are still the problems existed in Chinese school-enterprise cooperation such as poor docking between scientific project and market, scattered innovation resources, unsustainable technology innovation, and lower quality results. The main reason is that the channel of knowledge transfer is single and lack of support from multiple functions of universities. Based on the perspective of knowledge transfer “quintuple helix mode”，this paper construct a multi-dimensional school-enterprise cooperation interaction channels from aspects of knowledge sharing platform, intermediary service agency, open communication forum, bidirectional embedded talent flow, trans-regional innovation and entrepreneurship park, specialized funds and venture investment systems. This model is conductive to the realization of universities’ multiple functions in innovation and maximizes knowledge transfer effect, and further advance the deepening and efficiency of school-enterprise cooperation in China.
