Education, Innovation, Economic Growth, IT Infrastructure, AccountabilityAbstract
This research examines the impact of education, accountability, and IT infrastructure on innovation and economic growth in Southeast and East Asian countries. Utilizing Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis, secondary data was analyzed without employing Convergent Validity, Discriminant Validity, or Composite Reliability due to the nature of the data. The study reveals that education and IT infrastructure positively influence innovation, which in turn drives economic growth, while accountability has a less significant impact. Data was collected and observed over recent years to provide contemporary insights. The findings suggest policy implications emphasizing the enhancement of educational systems and IT infrastructure to foster innovation and economic development in the region.
