Academic entrepreneurship: phase-specific constraints and needs

Abstract: Purpose Academic entrepreneurship is extremely relevant in knowledge and technology transfer (KTT). The purpose of this study is to provide insights into phase-specific constraints and needs impacting scientists’ engagement in entrepreneurial activities at public research institutions. Design/methodology/approach In an exploratory case study, 40 qualitative, semi-structured interviews were conducted with German academic entrepreneurs in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). … Show more

“…The results confirm that sense of belonging is the relational task-conveying mechanism to indirectly generate coproduction through knowledge sharing and then citizenship (Bolino et al, 2002). This building behavior constitutes a critical source of sustainable competitive advantage for a networking community (Müller-Wieland et al, 2019). A platform is incomplete when objectives only focus on the instrumental features and supporting functions are not considered.…”

“…Life-cycle theory suggests that change occurs at distinct developmental stages and thus provides a systematic framework for explaining IPR commercialisation from the licensing phase to the post-startup phase. As a startup grows and progresses through defined stages – research, orientation, pre-founding and establishment – it faces specific challenges and barriers (Müller-Wieland et al , 2019). Here, these stages are illustrated in Figure 1, which shows how startups pass through an exploratory phase and then an STD phase.…”

“…Great importance has been attributed to a heterogeneous group of university characteristics and different forms of university incentives. Good examples are the external relations of the university (Müller-Wieland et al, 2019;Muscio & Ramaciotti, 2019;Rasmussen & Wright, 2015), the University regulations about spin-offs and patenting (Fini et al, 2011;Muscio et al, 2016;Ndonzuau et al, 2002), as well as policies supporting entrepreneurship (Muscio & Ramaciotti, 2019) and specific incentives for entrepreneurship (Parmentola & Ferretti, 2018;Rasmussen & Wright, 2015).…”
