Özet
The digital economy requires strong interaction among its constituents and a co-creation climate so that the expected socio-economic values are acquired. Within this general framework, there is a need for understanding the dimensions of digital transformation which can affect or even disrupt, or be driven by from technological entrepreneurship ecosystems. In the digital transformation era, especially university-based innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems are expected to play an essential role in building linkages between researchers, technology start-ups, idea/ prototype developers and industrial enterprises. In this context, our study aims to explore the possible roles of science and technology universities for the adaptation and development of Industry 4.0 technologies for manufacturing industry through their participation in innovation ecosystems. We also analysed the linkages between these roles and the challenges of adapting Industry 4.0 technologies. After a content analysis in previous literature, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 experts from (4 Managers from UIEEs, ten industrial experts working on digital transformation in the manufacturing industry, two management consultants and three academicians). AHP (Analytical Hierarchical Process) multicriteria decision-making method and needs analysis by quality function deployment techniques are utilized to combine pillars of digital transformation pillars (that include (1) challenges and (2) Industry 4.0 tools and technologies that are applicable to manufacturing industry) with the key roles of Science and Technology Universities which contributes to technological innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems. Additionally, with experts we discussed the potential challenges of Universities for effectively performing their roles in innovation ecosystems for adapting Industry 4.0 technologies and digital transformation. Finally we proposed a technology policy design framework that can provide appropriate policy options on embedding university-based innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems (UIEE) in digital transformation roadmap for the manufacturing industry in Turkey as a case study for developing countries to promote sustainable innovation in critical industries.

Potential challenges of Universities about their participation and activities in innovation ecosystems for adapting Industry 4.0 technologies and digital transformation have to be utilized in designing these ecosystems and by policy makers from academia, regional and national government institutions. To prevent negative impacts of unbalanced governance and lack of agility of universities, organizational structures in ecosystems should be regulated by specific administrative regulations and directives. Funding problems can be solved by the supporting funds from Govermental Bodies like Science and Technology Councils and European Union funds. Also competition between consultancy and solution providers and universities should be prevented by introducing processes and platforms that can enable coopetition (cooperative competition) between these stakeholders. Nepotism stands as the major concern that require high governance standards in ecosystems of innovation. For all these challenges, ecosystem designers will be in need of advanced consultancy services and international collaboration from leaders and best practitioners in innovation ecosystems.
