Abstract
Collaborative innovation, with universities as the main body, is an important foundation for deepening the cooperation between industry, universities, and research institutes. Taking the collaborative innovation of five universities in Japan Shikoku area as an example, this paper summarizes the content of collaborative innovation in colleges and universities. The Shikoku SICO, which is established by government, is set to integrate the resource of university, enterprises, industry, and government, expand and broaden the knowledge chain, and promote knowledge flow and value realization through knowledge gathering and diffusion, knowledge dissemination and sharing, and knowledge transfer and application. Based on SICO's collaborative innovation mode of the Japan Shikoku area, five universities have established a virtuous circle of knowledge, capital, and talents, forming a collaborative innovation ecosystem characterized by symbiosis. From an ecology perspective, this paper establishes a regional collaborative innovation symbiotic system, which is characterized by knowledge, with the components of producer, consumer, decomposer, and catalyzer. Finally, from the perspective of constructing symbiosis system, this paper puts forward the experience of colleges and universities in Japan in terms of knowledge dissemination, knowledge transfer, and knowledge gathering.

Drawing on the experience of knowledge dissemination in the five universities in Shikoku area, following enlightenments can be draws for the colleges and universities administrators: (1) It is important to construct a loop of knowledge feedback, and timely forward the knowledge generated in the process of collaborative innovation to universities to serve the talent cultivation of colleges and universities
Summary
The concept of collaborative innovation was first proposed by Gloor, a researcher at the MIT Sloan. The Japanese government plays an important role in promoting the development of the combination of industry and education in universities. The knowledge platform breaks through the boundaries between universities, effectively uses the existing resources of each university, integrates Admissions Office (AO) entrance exams, and e-learning education sharing to promote collaborative innovation. This is a typical case of Japan’s collaborative innovation in universities, and it has exerted the innovative power of local universities. This paper takes the collaborative innovation of five universities in Japan Shikoku area as an example to explore how to construct a collaborative innovation ecosystem with colleges and universities as the main body and characterized by symbiosis, in order to provide experience for the promotion of collaborative innovation in universities of other countries
