The phenomenon of innovation has been addressed in parallel with economic actors' roles in economy. In Turkey, the state is considered as a key part of innovation process through public universities and innovation policies. Although studies in literature show the efficiency of government-industry-university collaboration at national level from many points, sub-national/regional level analyses indicate undesirable results. In this study, the efficiency of regional innovation ecosystems is analyzsed within the framework of Triple-Helix Model for 81 province and 2011-2015 period for Turkey. According to the results, the contribution of universities and public supports differ at regional level. Private sector characteristics and the level of economic development are the most decisive factors at regional innovation. Based on empirical findings, we proposed several policies for enhancement of regional innovation ecosystems.
