“…(PC1)The universities, without neglecting their main task of teaching, have thus wagered on the success of the entrepreneurial tasks, which these institutions are currently forced to join with companies to achieve (Clark 1998; Etzkowitz 1983, 2013; Guerrero, Cunningham, and Urbano 2015; Guerrero and Urbano 2012; Jacob, Lundqvist, and Hellsmark 2003; Leih and Teece 2016; Wright, Birley, and Mosey 2004; Schmitz et al 2017). By becoming entrepreneurs, universities enable the creation of regional innovation networks, foster entrepreneurial innovation, and, at the same time, promote regional development (Aaboen 2009; Guerrero, Cunningham, and Urbano 2015; Deng, Liang, and Fan 2019). In Europe, however, universities’ entrepreneurial processes are still “in progress,” becoming more prominent in the last ten years (Guerrero, Cunningham, and Urbano 2015; Grimaldi et al 2011; Mazgan 2011; Riviezzo et al 2019).…”

If innovation is the engine of economies, the partnerships in the Triple Helix model of innovation are the fuel that makes this engine work. Although each member of this model has its defined role, the present study sought to gain a new perspective on these partnerships, including the role of governments. Based on interviews with representatives of universities, companies, and governments in two countries (i.e., Portugal and Spain), this research focused on how innovation partnerships are formed as well as what obstacles to cooperation can arise. The results show that governments can play the role not only of a financier and legislator but also of a direct participant in innovation by entering into partnerships with the other Triple Helix actors. In addition, this study revealed that, irrespective of which partners and needs are in question, these networks operate mostly with public funds.

“…On the one hand, SE usually works in alliance with governments and acts as a local agent to identify and articulate social need (Haugh & Kitson, 2007). On the other hand, socially supportive culture and post-materialism complement SE in promoting SWB (Deng, Liang, & Fan, 2019). Second, the influence of SE on SWB is contingent on social capital.…”

Social entrepreneurship (SE) is often viewed as an effective means to promote social well-being (SWB). However, how SE emerges from a country's institutional and social context, and consequently, how the institutional and social embeddedness of SE influences the level of SWB in a particular country, remains unanswered. This study, utilizing fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), addresses these questions by exploring, (1) the configurations of institutional and social capital conditions that lead to high prevalence rates of different types of SE activities in a country, and (2) the configurations of such institutionally and socially embedded SE activities that deliver high level of SWB in a country. It advances the SE literature by revealing the embeddedness and configurational nature of SE. Specifically, multiple equifinal configurations of socio-political conditions can lead to high prevalence rates of not-for-profit SE and hybrid SE. Moreover, this study finds that while both notfor-profit SE and hybrid SE can facilitate SWB by interacting with sociopolitical conditions, they do so through different mechanisms.

“…Second, studies divulging the interaction effect of the individual psychological resource with entrepreneurs’ social identity on firm outcomes are limited. Recently, entrepreneurs’ well-being, the degree to which people are content with their lives and jobs ( Deng et al, 2019 ), has been regarded as a key psychological resource in the entrepreneurship area, as it intends to complement traditional outcomes of entrepreneurial activities, such as firm performance ( Wiklund et al, 2019 ). Although entrepreneurs’ well-being is considered a critical psychological resource related to the creation, production, and cooperation (see Wiklund et al (2019) ], its interaction role with entrepreneurs’ social identity on firm outcomes is rarely investigated.…”

“…Well-being is a term adopted in many disciplines ( Ryan and Deci, 2001 ), which has been described as “living in a state that is in some sense good” ( Warr, 2013 , p. 77) and is characterized by “optimal psychological functioning and experience” ( Ryan and Deci, 2001 , p. 142). For example, work-related subjective well-being explains the degree to which people are satisfied with their jobs ( Deng et al, 2019 ). Regarding entrepreneur’s well-being, a typical of well-being in entrepreneurship, it has studied as an outcomes traditionally.…”

Although the impact of entrepreneurs’ social identity on successful entrepreneurship has attracted much scholarly attention, it is often to evaluate successful entrepreneurship through direct channel to financial performance. Recently, there is a growing body of researches beginning to pay attention to the impact of entrepreneurs’ social identity on corporate social responsibility (CSR) regarded as indirect social aspect channel to successful entrepreneurship. However, little is known regarding how entrepreneurs’ Darwinian social identity affects CSR, which in turn, affects business performance. This study addresses this issue by combining stakeholder theory with social identity theory, to investigate the relationship between entrepreneurs’ Darwinian social identity and business performance via CSR. In addition, the moderating effect of entrepreneur’s well-being is further examined to uncover the interaction effect of the individual psychological resource on business performance. The empirical results indicate that entrepreneurs’ Darwinian social identity contributes positively to CSR, so as further to business performance. In addition, this relationship is further found to be significantly moderated by entrepreneurs’ well-being. The results indicate that entrepreneurs can achieve business success via CSR, by which entrepreneurs can further acquire successful entrepreneurship through caring more about their well-being.
