Abstract:
This paper offers insights into the process of knowledge co-creation, as well as reflections on how the actions
undertaken by the implied parties added to their goal of becoming more entrepreneurial universities. The
purpose of the reported research is to guide others that set forth to orchestrate capacity building by allowing co-operating universities to co-create new knowledge and publish it in the form of an anthology. The main purpose
of the undertaken activities was to build capacity on how to understand and enact entrepreneurship. For a
university to become entrepreneurial, it must acquire the kind of internal organization that allows it to be in a
state of continuous change and adaptiveness, and that allows its members to become more effective. How one
could carry this trough into realization is still debated. This research also helps toward a deeper understanding on
how universities could foster a sustained steady state of change by displaying a case from Norway and Sri Lanka
were universities co-create knowledge in order to stay competitive. The conclusions and suggestion are derived
through a case study methodology with elements of action research. During the reported process the project
experienced meta-learning as it also gained capacity on how to create learning capacities. While arranging for this
co-creation of knowledge we were able to reflect on how knowledge could be created and orchestrated in the
intersection between two spatially different located universities. This research then also provides insight on how
to co-create such capacities.
