An innovative higher education institution through a digital revolution

Abstract EN

Higher education institutions are expected to reveal the methods they adopt in order to meet the social and economic requirements of society.

There is no single way, but a number of approaches in which higher education institutions perform in an entrepreneurial and innovative manner.

Such manners revolve around the way those institutions handle resources and construct organisational power; create and nurture synergies between teaching, research and their societal commitment; insert digital technology into their practices and the way they promote entrepreneurship through education and business start-up support.

As such, this paper aims at underscoring the pivotal role digital technologies play in sustaining the development of an entrepreneurial and innovative higher education institution.
