UNIVERSITY SPIN-OFFS: THE ENTREPRENEUR – TECHNOLOGICAL OPPORTUNITY NEXUS
Keywords:
Spin-offs, Universities, Entrepreneurs, Technological opportunities.Abstract
The new companies that are born from academic institutions are important for the economy of a region. In addition to providing a dynamic atmosphere, these young firms take advantage of innovative research. They have a positive influence on emerging research and on the economic education in universities. However, despite these beneficial aspects, the information about this phenomenon is not clear enough. For this reason, the objective of this paper is to better inform the public of the technological opportunities afforded by the creation of new companies in local universities. This study followed a post-positivist methodological proposal, specifically the grounded theory and the case study. The result of this research is an explanatory model that shows the processes involved in forming new enterprises.Downloads
