An interview with Loet Leydesdorff: The past, present, and future of the triple helix in the age of big data

Abstract

The triple helix (TH) of university-industry-government relations can be considered as one of the most popular innovation models in the last two decades. In this brief interview with Leydesdorff, we show how the TH can be used to improve knowledge-based innovation systems in some developing and transitional economies and provide some concrete examples of TH applications in the age of big data. © 2013 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.
