Collaboration between universities and businesses is a key driver of innovation and economic growth. This policy brief highlights the need for institutionalized Knowledge Transfer Offices (KTOs) and financial incentives to facilitate stronger partnerships between academia and industry. By creating structured mechanisms for knowledge exchange, Albania can improve research commercialization and support a more dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem.
