Andrea-Rosalinde Hofer: HEInnovate: Supporting Innovation and Entrepreneurshi...CUBCCE Conference
Andrea-Rosalinde HOFER a German national has been working for the OECD since 2003. She led the HEInnovate country reviews in Bulgaria, Ireland, the Netherlands and Hungary, and the OECD’s predecessor work on strengthening university entrepreneurship support in eastern Germany. The aim of HEInnovate – a key long-term partnership initiative by the European Commission and the OECD – is to support policy makers, higher education leaders and other key stakeholders to identify the actions they can take to stimulate entrepreneurship and innovation and to remove the blockages that can exist at the institutional level and the national higher education system, based on data, analysis and international comparison. To enhance the practical application of the HEInnovate guiding framework, a free online self-assessment tool (www.heinnovate.eu) was designed for HEIs to organise a strategic debate with key stakeholders around entrepreneurship and innovation, using a digital platform (http://www.HEInnovate.eu). The tool is available in 23 languages and currently used by more than 800 HEIs around the world.

Universities are breeding grounds for innovative ideas. Companies that align with early-stage research, benefit from shared ideas and acquire a higher competitive advantage
Companies are hungry for ideas, and the actual technologies and intellectual properties to commercialize those ideas. And, companies are also hungry for talent.
The benefits for industries include access to a network of faculty, key opinion leaders, and lead scientists, and the ability to team up with other companies interested in the same research.
With the constant pressures on resources and the ever-increasing expectations of the stakeholders, facing it alone is no longer an option
No organization can be the best, the smartest, or the most cost-effective at everything
Working together to bring the right combination of skills, experience, and resources is the sure way to solve the conundrum ravaging the industries
Together, Everybody Achieves More (TEAM)
