The Role of Universities and Local Context in Supporting the Creation of Academic Spin-offs (2011, unknown): “Such companies, especially in the last two decades, have received increasing attention from researchers and policymakers because of their ability to create wealth and to advance scientific knowledge (Mustar et al., 2006, 2008).”

Determinants and consequences of university spinoff activity: a conceptual framework (2008, background): “In a recent cohort of studies, a small number of researchers have moved to a neglected area by exploring spinoff development ( Mustar et al. 2006 ) and have put forward several different phases of development that spinoffs go through.”
