ABSTRACT
The author hopes that topics contained in this work will offer a source of inspiration to academics and practitioners dealing with inter-organizational cooperation and management of relations between higher education institutions and enterprises, especially in the context of the dynamic digitization of both the business sector and the academic sector. This work can be particularly useful to all organizations that are aware of their operating conditions in the knowledge-based economy and of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemics on the acceleration of the digital transformation of the contemporary world. To deal with the resulting challenges, enterprises and higher education institutions should develop and strengthen relations enabling them to exchange knowledge resources, learn together and co-create knowledge to attain the synergy effect thanks to its use and diffusion.
