Conceptualizing academic entrepreneurship ecosystems: a review, analysis and extension of the literature (2018, background): “…important to encourage and support entre-preneurial endeavors (Bergmann et al. 2016; Boh et al. 2016; Carayannis et al. 2016; Cri-aco et al. 2014; Guerrero et al. 2014; Jacob et al. 2003; Jefferson et al. 2017; Levie 2014; Oehler et al. 2015; Rasmussen 2008; Souitaris et al. 2007; Swamidass 2013).”
Institutional determinants of university spin-off quantity and quality: a longitudinal, multilevel, cross-country study (2016, background): “It has been debated whether the most efficient policies for commercialization of research are bottom–up or top–down (Goldfarb and Henrekson 2002; Rasmussen 2008).”
A knowledge-based typology of university spin-offs in the context of regional economic development (2010, background): “, 2006), this is commonly found amongst Canadian universities (Rasmussen, 2008).”
Academic spin-offs at different ages: A case study in search of key obstacles to growth (2009, background): “Fostering spin-off firms, within the aim of commercialization of university research, is today at the core of many national and local economic policies, including Europe, North America and increasingly Asia (Kroll and Liefner 2008; Rasmussen 2008; Shane 2004).”
Revisiting Academic Capitalism in Canada: No Longer the Exception (2010, background): “…it is clear that incentive-based funding in Canada has passed through the “start-up” phase and is moving into a more “operational phase” with “the government instruments play[ing] a key role in the development of commercialization infrastructure at Canadian universities” (Rasmussen, 2008, p. 515).”
Differences in technology transfer between science-based and development based industries: transfer mechanisms and barriers (2011, background): “Although various studies have demonstrated that policy may contribute to improving knowledge exchange between academia and industry (Rasmussen, 2008; Bercovitz and Feldman, 2006; Peneder, 2008; Krabel and Mueller, 2009), there have also been concerns that such policies may ignore the presumed…”
Orchestrating innovation networks: The case of innovation brokers in the agri-food sector (2010, background): “The worlds of research, authorities and industry often have different cultures and priorities and are therefore not always easy to connect and keep connected (Johnson 2008; Rasmussen 2008; Winch and Courtney 2007).”
Establishment and embedding of innovation brokers at different innovation system levels: insights from the Dutch agricultural sector (2009, background): “Several authors emphasize the need for coherence of innovation support instruments, both ‘soft’ instruments (awareness raising, demand articulation, networking support, consultancy, training) and ‘hard’ instruments (such as physical infrastructure, funding) [31,54,77].”
Strengthening Agricultural Innovation Capacity: Are Innovation Brokers the Answer? (2009, background): “This is enhanced by the fact that the impact of innovation brokers on innovation is hard to make visible with current evaluation methods aimed at " hard " indicators (Rasmussen, 2008).”
