Results of EUA survey on universities and innovation

This database refers to the data collected by the European University Association (EUA) through its survey on universities and innovation in 2021. Designed to gather evidence about the state of innovation at European universities, the EUA survey took stock of how these institutions pursue their third mission and help deliver the sustainable and digital transitions. As such, it continues EUA’s long-standing work showcasing universities’ key contributions to innovation ecosystems, in a context of multiplying societal challenges and the increasing relevance of knowledge to devising new solutions. The full report published by the Association is available at: https://www.eua.eu/resources/publications/1014:universities-as-key-drivers-of-sustainable-innovation-ecosystems.html
