New ventures often pursue both economic and social goals, known as goal hybridity. Yet, we know less about how organizational hybridity influences the performance governance of new ventures. Goal is common among academic spin-offs (ASOs) seeking to commercialize scientific research from universities. We hypothesize that ASOs’ their subsequent structure. also ASOs who enrol multiple stakeholders...

When academic researchers participate in commercialization using for-profit firms there is a potentially costly trade-off – their time and effort are diverted away from academic knowledge production. This is a form of brain drain on the not-for-profit research sector that may reduce academic research productivity and adversely impact university performance and long-run economic growth. In this ...

This research broadens the understanding of university spin-off management through a bibliometric analysis select literature on subject. Using ProknowC method, papers published between 2011 and 2021 in Scopus database were systematically analysed. The process resulted portfolio 37 relevant that aligned with topics subject to analyses. results are expected contribute academia, policymaking, mana...

The present paper investigates the effectiveness of R&D subsidies given to start-ups. Taking an aggregate view rather than evaluating a single program, we estimate the impact of R&D subsidies on start-ups’ employment growth and their patent output. A unique data set on start-ups in the East German county of Thuringia allows us to focus on those start-ups that conduct R&D within the first three ...

In the current context, characterized by a sort of ‘open innovation’, spin-offs phenomenon represents an innovative approach to support technological knowledge transfer and innovation processes from research organizations to industrial world. Furthermore, spin-offs could be considered an innovative strategy to follow up the results obtained within collaborative R&D (Research and Development) pr...
