Track: Technology Management

Abstract

Research and Innovation are included in the Indonesian government's medium and long-term agenda to realize Indonesia's vision as an advanced economy by 2045. However, the low research and innovation spending in Indonesia is still a critical problem. The Triple Helix arrangement model in conducting research and innovation is one of the important things for technological and economic progress. In Indonesia, there are at least three funding schemes that apply the triple helix arrangement model with their respective measurement instruments such as TKT and Katsinov. However, in the use of these instruments, there are still obstacles that are difficult for users to understand, both among researchers, industry, and practitioners. So, the researchers tried to adapt the Balanced Readiness Level Assessment (BRLa) which was previously developed in Norway through a design thinking approach into a Customized BRLa prototype to be used as a triple helix model funding assessment instrument. This prototype can still be developed up to the implementation and trial stages for funders or reviewers in assessing proposals as well as monitoring and evaluating the implementation of research funded by the triple helix model, so that in the future it is hoped that research, development and innovation funding will be mostly given by the government by taking into account its readiness can produce optimal and useful outcomes.
