Success factors of university-spin-offs: Regional government support programs versus regional environment (2014, background): “The few exceptions deal in particular with the very well-known, highly research-oriented universities such as Oxford/ UK (see Lawton Smith and Ho, 2006) or Stanford (see Sturgeon, 2000).”
The research university, entrepreneurship and regional development: Research propositions and current evidence (2012, background): “By the mid-2000s, Oxford University spin-offs contributed to nearly 3% of the county’s total workforce (Lawton Smith and Ho 2006), thereby contributing to path-dependent processes (Martin and Sunley 2006) of growth in the high-tech economy.”
Rethinking the Commercialization of Public Science: From Entrepreneurial Outcomes to Societal Impacts (2018, background): “Because of research intensity and high uncertainty, university spin-offs may spend a decade or more before they take off and start growing (Lawton Smith & Ho, 2006) and long-term studies spanning several decades find remarkable economic and innovation impacts (Vincett, 2010; Wallmark & McQueen,…”
The M&A dynamics of European science-based entrepreneurial firms (2010, background): “However, we have found a distribution of university-based IPOs among industries similar to previous studies that considered SBEFs in an earlier stage of their life cycle (see for example, Smith and Ho 2006 ).”
