HEI-led innovation hubs’ contribution to socioeconomic development
In an era of rapid technological evolution and increased global challenges, higher education institutions (HEIs) emerge as catalysts for development. This Viewpoint delves into the rising global interest in innovation hubs and discusses how HEI-led hubs can bolster national competitiveness and support the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) Vision 2030 goals. After identifying untapped opportunities for such hubs to advance KSA’s innovation positioning, we articulate a number of key success factors for this to be realized.
