Abstract

Knowledge flow is fundamental to the creation of knowledge and the cultivation of talent. This study elucidates the concept of knowledge flow within the context of industry-education integration through a systematic analysis of existing literature, examining five key stages of knowledge innovation: generation, sharing, integration, application, and feedback. By exploring how this integration consolidates regional knowledge resources, the research highlights its critical role in enhancing inter-organizational learning and optimizing the efficiency of knowledge flow. The findings indicate that effective knowledge flow not only facilitates the commercialization and marketability of academic intellectual outputs but also enables the adaptation of educational methodologies to meet the evolving needs of the industry. The study concludes that strengthening policy incentives, promoting robust academic collaborations, and leveraging digital technologies are essential for facilitating the transfer of knowledge across organizations. While this research provides valuable insights into the mechanisms by which industry-education integration can enhance both the efficiency and impact of knowledge flows, it should be noted that the lack of empirical data constrains the generalizability of the findings. Future research should consider conducting empirical studies to validate and expand upon these insights.
