Abstract

SDG-9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) signifies the FinTech quality in innovation, growth and environment. The author has collected feedback from faculty members to improve the perception of research and innovation in Conventional Higher Education Institutions. Partial Least Squares-SEM was employed to evaluate the proposed hypothesis. This analysis identifies factors such as inputs, processes, and outputs. (QOF), and (QOS) are the input factors. (QDI), (QOR), and (WE) are the process factors. Only (QIII) is represented as an output factor. This study covered three categories of HEIs including Deemed-to-be universities, public universities, and Private universities. The researcher has sent a Google Form questionnaire link to 412 respondents to collect data from the faculty members in Conventional Higher Education Institutions. The Study found satisfactory results in the structural and measurement model validations of the constructs. This study is limited to SDG-9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and restricted to faculty members in the Conventional Higher Education Institutions in Karnataka.
