Article 45, Paragraph 1 of Law Number 12 of 2012 concerning Higher Education stipulates that research in higher education institutions is directed toward developing science and technology, as well as enhancing public welfare and national competitiveness. Furthermore, the implementation of Government Regulation Number 20 of 2005—regarding the transfer of technology, intellectual property, and research and development results by higher education institutions and research and development agencies—has shown suboptimal effectiveness after more than ten years of operation. This is evident from the low contribution of science and technology to the industrial sector, the suboptimal utilization of research findings, the lack of effective intermediation between science and technology providers and users, and the absence of financial institutions that encourage the utilization of intellectual property rights (IPR). Consequently, the government has issued the General Guidebook on Higher Education Innovation Management to encourage the establishment of Innovation Institutions and IPR Centers within higher education institutions.

This General Guidebook on Higher Education Innovation Management is the first guide to outline the procedures for implementing innovation management, covering planning, organizing, execution, evaluation, and reporting. The content presented in this guidebook includes: an introduction, innovation concepts, innovation management organizations in Indonesia, higher education innovation management, and general guidelines for innovation management organization services.
