Conceptualizing academic entrepreneurship ecosystems: a review, analysis and extension of the literature (2018, background): “The basis of an entrepreneurial culture is academic peers, both at the university and within an entrepreneur’s academic discipline (Bercovitz and Feldman 2008).”
Imprint–environment Fit and Performance (2014, background): “For example, the characteristics of coworkers early in the career shape mutual fund managers’ entrepreneurial choices for years to come (Kacperczyk, 2009), and early professional training imprints a set of norms on scientists, which affects their adoption of organizational practices at later career ”
Flying the nest: how the home department shapes researchers’ career paths (2017, neutral): “Socialization processes affect research performance (Hall et al., 2007), scientists’ attitudes towards knowledge transfer (Bercovitz and Feldman 2008), teaching (McDaniels 2010) as well as careers (Austin and McDaniels 2006; Weidman et al. 2001; Fuhrmann et al. 2011).”
Employee Resistance To Organizational Change (2013, neutral): “…cannot be easily dismissed, and its significance is further justified by the fact that, in organizational change environments, actors naturally seek to make sense of the situation and adjust their expectations to the new experiences emerging as a result of the change (Bercovitz & Feldman, 2008).”
Engaging Excellence? Effects of Faculty Quality on University Engagement with Industry (2011, neutral): “Industry involvement may require specific skills and organizational capabilities that are different from those required to excel in the academic arena (Bercovitz and Feldman, 2008).”
The character of innovative places: entrepreneurial strategy, economic development, and prosperity (2014, background): “While organizational practices certainly are difficult to change, they are not immutable (Bercovitz and Feldman 2008).”
Institutional determinants of university spin-off quantity and quality: a longitudinal, multilevel, cross-country study (2016, background): “Moreover, it seems clear that university faculty complies with local group norms when it comes to involvement in spin-off creation (Bercovitz and Feldman 2008; Louis et al. 1989).”
Exploring the resource logic of student entrepreneurs (2012, background): “…studies on entrepreneurship in academic environments has focused on faculty members´ involvement in entrepreneurial activities (see, for example, Allen, Link and Rosenbaum, 2007; Bercovitz and Feldman, 2008; Chrisman, Politis et al. 661 Hynes and Fraser, 1995; Meyer, 2006; Mosey and Wright, 2007).”
Perceived Obstacles to University–Industry Collaboration: Results from a Qualitative Survey of Italian Academic Departments (2014, background): “There is a large literature that analyses the drivers of this interaction at the innovation system (Edquist 2005), institutional (Perkmann et al. 2013; Rothaermel, Agung, and Jiang 2007) and individual researcher (Ankrah et al. 2013; Bercovitz and Feldman 2008) levels.”
The Determinants of Entrepreneurial Intention of Young Researchers: Combining the Theory of Planned Behavior with the Triple Helix Model (2019, background): “…are consistent with previous research which found that a scientist’s decision to found his or her own firm is largely conditioned by social normative pressures (Bercovitz and Feldman 2008; Stuart and Ding 2006) and driven by the personal TPB factors (attitude and perceived behavioral control).”
The evolving state-of-the-art in technology transfer research: Revisiting the contingent effectiveness model (2015, background): “…transfer gives attention to this criterion, especially in relation to possible impacts on individual researchers’ research agendas (Bercovitz and Feldman, 2008), teaching responsibilities (Mendoza, 2007) and, more generally, organizational culture (Lee and Gaertner, 1994; Slaughter and…”
Mapping the field: a bibliometric analysis of the literature on university–industry collaborations (2017, background): “…in entrepreneurial activities, such as quality and size of the faculty, previous experiences, commercial and research orientation, and funding and commercial capabilities of the researchers and their universities (Mansfield 1995; Etzkowitz 2003a; O’Shea et al. 2005; Bercovitz and Feldman 2008).”
A process model of academic entrepreneurship (2011, background): “Given this centrality, much of the academic entrepreneurship literature (e.g., Bercovitz & Feldman, 2008) suggests that academic entrepreneurship begins with the activities of the TTO.”
Scientists’ transition to academic entrepreneurship: Economic and psychological determinants (2012, background): “In line with the literature on academic entrepreneurship (Bercovitz & Feldman, 2008; Stuart & Ding, 2006), our study considered individual scientists’ workplace peers as salient referents determining their entrepreneurial behavior.”
Who are the researchers that are collaborating with industry? An analysis of the wine sectors in Chile, South Africa and Italy (2010, background): “, 2007; Bekkers and Freitas Bodas, 2008; Bercovitz and Feldman,2008;VanRijnsoeveret al., 2008). Inparticular, Boardman and Ponomariov (2009) have proposed an exploratory assessment of the effects of a broad range of individual-level characteristics in a sample of US scientists, on their interactions”
