Conceptualizing academic entrepreneurship ecosystems: a review, analysis and extension of the literature (2018, background): “…definition of university spinoff to include companies that do not necessarily have a formal licensing agreement with a university (e.g. Fini et al. 2010), as well as the establishment of spinoffs by individuals other than faculty, including postdocs and graduate students (e.g. Hayter et al. 2017).”
The development, growth, and performance of university spin-offs: a critical review (2019, unknown): “Student start-ups are excluded unless the students act as surrogate entrepreneurs commercializing research results developed at the university (Hayter et al. 2016; Lundqvist 2014).”
Mapping the field: a bibliometric analysis of the literature on university–industry collaborations (2017, background): “As shown by research on the motivations of academics to start a spin-off, their motives differ (Fini et al. 2009; Hayter et al. 2016; Rizzo 2015) so that their identities can also be expected to be heterogeneous (Clarysse et al.”
