Industrializing Academic Knowledge In Taiwan

Academic research commercialization and knowledge production and diffusion: the moderating effects of entrepreneurial commitment

“…Moreover, this study supports the argument that the state-owned universities have no significant ability to create licensing income (Chang et al 2005). However, the faculty members of public universities had significantly higher licensing incomes than their counterparts in private universities.…”

Entrepreneurial Leadership and New Ventures: Creativity in Entrepreneurial Teams

“…There were 7 incubators initiated in 1997, increasing to a total of 65 incubators by 2004. The illustrative indicators of the Taiwanese ‘surrogate‐incubation’ model found that over 43 percent of Taiwan's universities have established incubator centres (Chang et al., 2005). The number of tenant firms in incubators is also increasing (18 ventures in 1997, rising to 1,725 ventures in 2004).…”

Knowledge creation and diffusion of Taiwan's universities: Knowledge trajectory from patent data

“…Therefore, in many catching-up countries, universities are thought to help accelerate industrial innovation on account of the knowledge spillover there [12,15,42,43]. Due to the fact that patents are legal documents with codified knowledge providing reliable records to trace bibliographic information, patent data is exploited by many empirical studies to conduct the issues regarding innovation and knowledge creation and spillover within the innovation process [24,31,32,45].…”
