摘要

本研究探讨了创新中心对知识、创新和创业生态系统的影响。为了获得更深入的见解,本研究采用探索性案例研究设计,并采用定性方法进行实证调查。研究结果显示,x创新中心在知识的共同创造和转移,以及促进多元化创新方面,为青年赋权作出了显著贡献。研究结果还表明,创新中心在将创新转化为创业机会方面的贡献仍然不尽人意。此外,调查结果表明,并非所有来自该中心的初创企业都在起飞。这是由于财政限制和不友好的法律框架等各种破坏因素造成的。X-Innovation Hub要想为国家创新体系做出令人满意和可持续的贡献,就必须经过深思熟虑的努力,并由政府等不同利益相关者制定战略。特别重要的是,使资金来源多样化以尽量减少对国际发展资助机构和组织的依赖。

Scaling Innovation Hubs: Impact on Knowledge, Innovation and Entrepreneurial Ecosystems in Tanzania
This study has explored the impact of innovation hubs on knowledge, innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystems. To gain deeper insights, the study adopted an exploratory case study design along a qualitative approach to conduct an empirical investigation. The study reveals a noticeable contribution of the X-Innovation Hub in empowering youths in aspects of knowledge co-creation and transfer, and promotion of diverse innovations. The findings of the study also disclose that the contribution of the innovation hub in transforming innovations into entrepreneurial opportunities is still unsatisfactory. Furthermore, the findings suggest that not all start-ups emanating from the hub are taking off. This is due to various undermining factors such as financial constraints and unfriendly legal frameworks. For X-Innovation Hub to satisfactorily and sustainably contribute to national innovation systems, deliberate efforts must be made, and strategies put in place by different stakeholders such as the government. Particularly, diversification of funding sources to minimise dependence on international development funding agencies and organisations is important.
