“…The performance of these organizations in terms of university-industry cooperation (Franco and Haase 2015), innovation and local entrepreneurship has been well researched and documented (Rothaermel and Thursby 2005;Mian, Fayolle et al 2012;Barbero, Casillas et al 2014;Fernandez-Alles, Camelo-Ordaz et al 2015). Recent research advocates shifting the focus from strict performance to the internal practices of these organizations (Scillitoe and Chakrabarti 2010;Lundqvist 2014;Rubin, Aas et al 2015;Shane, Dolmans et al 2015;Weckowska 2015).…”

In a Triple Helix framework, independent hybrid organizations can be created at the intersection of overlapping yet separate institutional spheres to address innovation blockages. However, the formation process of these organizations, which incorporate and combine elements from the Triple Helix spheres, has seldom been investigated. We address this gap by proposing a model that conceptualizes the creation process of these organizations. We argue r r n p ns up "b und ry sp " d ff rs fr b und ry line. By comparing empirical results of three cases, we identify a three-step creation process (recognizing a gap; bringing Triple Helix representatives together and creating a consensus; and designing an ad hoc contingent solution). We highlight the individual role of a boundary spanner in these dynamics. The results provide new insights on the micro-foundations of the Triple Helix. They also suggest an extension of "b und ry sp nn r" n p

“…On the other hand, several authors state that TTOs develop additional support functions for ASOs that may contribute towards the development of innovations, in general, and social innovations in particular [7,86]. First, prior research has shown that TTOs are sources of supportive activities such as consultancy services, management training, administrative and legal tasks, and human resource services that facilitate the development of ASOs [95,[112][113][114]. Second, TTOs are considered as providers of business competences and credibility, which are necessary to operate in markets [113,[115][116][117].…”

“…In order to identify the key actors of the social and institutional contexts of the entrepreneurial ecosystem of ASOs, an extensive literature review was carried out, which revealed that the social context comprises relationships with national and international customers, suppliers, competitors, and VCs. The institutional context is composed of relationships with national and international government institutions, TTOs, incubators, other academics, chairs of entrepreneurs, and research centers [20,94,95]. By focusing on Mitchell [96] and Smith et al [97], the frequency of contact was employed to measure the interactions of ASOs with each agent.…”

Social innovations developed by academic spinoffs (ASOs) are acquiring an ever-increasing relevance in the literature on academic entrepreneurship. Previous studies have considered the importance of the social and institutional contexts of entrepreneurial ecosystems for the development of these innovations, although a greater depth of analysis is required in this field of study. This research analyzes the influence of the frequency of contact with agents of social and institutional contexts of the entrepreneurial ecosystem on the social innovations of ASOs. From a sample of 173 Spanish ASOs, the results indicate that frequent contact with government and academic support units improves this type of innovation of ASOs. Regarding social context, an increase in the frequency of contact with customers, suppliers, and competitors favors the development of social innovation. However, frequent contact with venture capital firms inhibits the development of this type of innovation.

“…Rasmussen and Wright (2015) states that universities can supply support for the development of fi rm competencies either directly or indirectly. Spin-off survival depends on the quality and size of their parent companies (Fackler et al, 2016), technology transfer activities, normative frameworks, support infrastructures (i.e., business incubators and science parks), and TTO staff 's specialist technical skills (Berbegal-Mirabent et al, 2015;Ramaciotti and Rizzo, 2015;Fernández-Alles et al, 2015, Fini et al, 2011Bolzani et al, 2014;). Slavtchev and Göktepe-Hultén (2016) conclude that support in the early stage by the parent organization like helping in development of a business plan and in acquiring external capital can speed up commercialization.…”

Abstract. Technology and innovation are viewed as triggers in the move towards greener economy. Commercialisation of green technologies does not only provide the key drivers for economic growth but are also essential for the world to be sustainable. Th e central idea of this paper is to address the query of what is known about green technological outputs. In particular, we look at the existing body of literature related to commercialization of green technologies, identifying the most active scholars, journals and relevant publications. Th e paper provides some answers to the questions of top journals with the papers related to commercialization of green technology, a number of articles with the highest number of citations, or the list of countries with the most of studies in green technologies. Th e paper has both academic and policy-making value . From the academic perspective the study identifi es the scholars who have contributed most to the research on commercialisation of green technologies. For policy-makers, this paper is a report on the existing practices and positive experience in responsible leadership. Additionally for practitioners, the study shows which subject areas create profi table growth in compliance with environmental sustainability and good corporate citizenship.
