The purpose of this study was to examine the role of the triple helix (TH) variable in knowledge transfer and innovation systems. TH is divided into 3 variables, namely Industry, University and Government. This study examined three TH knowledge transfer variables and innovation systems and the items variables that supported them. This study involved 360 respondents who were selected through an interception and online survey approach and had 4 hypotheses.This study used a structural equation model to test the hypothesis. The findings showed that TH which consisted of 3 variables had a direct relationship with knowledge transfer.Meanwhile, knowledge transfer was directly related to innovation systems. Although the TH concept had been explored in some previous literature, the role of TH and knowledge transfer had not been the concern of many researchers in creating innovation systems. Implications for practitioners, these findings confirmed that Innovation systems can be formed from an early age starting from the university environment and good government policies. These findings also indicated that knowledge transfer related to TH services needed to be studied from a broader perspective. Therefore, handling TH required synergy and a special strategy to take advantage of knowledge transfer in order to create an innovation system. Originality of this study, integrated the TH dimension with knowledge transfer and Innovation Systems.
