Abstract: This study delves into the complex dynamic within collaborative research networks (CRNs), with the aim of examining theoretical perspectives and common issues within the existing literature. CRNs have emerged as crucial mechanisms for addressing complex scientific challenges, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and enhancing knowledge dissemination. Through a comprehensive analysis, this review provides valuable recommendations for policymakers, academic institutions, and researchers seeking to establish and nurture successful collaborative research networks. Through synthesizing insights from various scholarly articles, we explore the components, mechanisms, practices, challenges, and opportunities encountered within CRNs bolstered by digital technologies and innovative practices, and their impact on sculpting the future landscape of manufacturing, technology transfer, and enhancing organizational performance. The article concludes with recommendations for future research directions, emphasizing the need for further exploration of CRNs' long-term impacts on the scientific community and society at large, addressing a notable gap for robust frameworks and practical guidelines essential for the effective development and implementation of CRNs.
