Exploring the Dynamics of Cross-Border Research Success: A Comprehensive Approach

Abstract

The present research paper aimed to develop a robust model explaining the dynamism of cross-border research collaboration. The model has been named as Cross-Border Research Collaboration Model (CBRCM) and the development of the model was based on the secondary data approach based on 120 peered-reviewed research paper published between 2018 to 2024.  The framework has highlighted three categories of facets, that is, antecedents of cross-border collaborations: the process of collaboration and the outcome of such collaboration. Accordingly, the antecedents include institutional support, technology enablers, individuals capabilities and organizational alignment. The process includes effective planning and executive quality, and the outcomes include outcomes in terms of knowledge, economic, cultural and societal. The CBRCM model offers actionable insights for researchers, policy makers, institutions and various other stakeholders for ensuring effective cross-border research collaborations.
