Unraveling the “passion orchestra” in academia (2016, background): “From a theoretical point of view, university spin-offs are studied extensively (Djokovic and Souitaris, 2008; Wright et al., 2008) and different spin-off typologies are suggested (e.”
Best channels of academia–industry interaction for long-term benefit (2012, background): “Wright et al. (2008) argue that each specific channel of interaction tends to favor either economic or intellectual benefits.”
Mapping the field: a bibliometric analysis of the literature on university–industry collaborations (2017, background): “…and characterisation of distinct interaction channels and knowledge transfer mechanisms, ranging from scientific publications and published reports, public conferences and meetings, licencing and patenting and to contract research and consultancy (Cohen et al. 2002; Wright et al. 2008).”
Organizational learning, entrepreneurial orientation, and the role of university engagement in SMEs (2016, result): “This is consistent with arguments presented by Azagra-Caro (2007) and Wright et al. (2008) that most of the knowledge at a university can be described as explicit knowledge.”
A theoretical analysis of the role of social networks in entrepreneurship (2014, background): “It is also important to note that the nature of university-industry relationships assumes many forms (e.g., consultancy and contract research, joint research, training, licensing, etc.) (Wright et al. 2008).”
The entrepreneurial university as driver for economic growth and social change - Key strategic challenges (2019, background): “Comparing leading international universities with ‘mid-range’ regionally based universities shows marked differences in the extent and nature of entrepreneurship (Wright et al. 2008).”
The Effectiveness of University Knowledge Spillovers: Performance Differences between University Spinoffs and Corporate Spinoffs (2011, background): “Sixth, the academic entrepreneurship literature has noted the importance of the role of elite universities compared with so-called mid-range universities (Shane, 2004; Wright et al., 2008b).”
Institutional determinants of university spin-off quantity and quality: a longitudinal, multilevel, cross-country study (2016, background): “Given the limited qualitative (Wright et al. 2008) and quantitative analyses (e.g., Chapple et al. 2005) of these multiple outputs, additional cross-country examination is warranted.”
Managing and incentivizing research commercialization in Chinese Universities (2010, background): “Another important constraint concerns how commercial pursuits are rewarded in the promotion process, as patenting and consulting do not receive as much merit as publishing and research activities (Renault 2006, Wright et al. 2008).”
“To have and have not”: founders’ human capital and university start-up survival (2013, background): “…for a survey), on their creation determinants (e.g. Ndonzuau et al. 2002; Di Gregorio and Shane 2003; Link and Scott 2005; Lockett and Wright 2005; Fini et al. 2009) or on the links between USU and the parent university or other networks (e.g. Nicolaou and Birley 2003; Wright et al. 2008).”
Commercializing university research in transition economies: Technology transfer offices or direct industrial funding? (2019, background): “178 In contrast, an entrepreneurship ecosystem with weak institutional context works in the 179 opposite fashion (Wright et al., 2006, 2008).”
Dynamics of Science-based entrepreneurship (2010, background): “The evidence presented by Colombo et al. (2009) adds to other evidence that emphasizes the importance of having a critical mass of high quality scientific research as a basis for the development of successful SBEFs ( Wright et al. 2008a ).”
