ABSTRACT

The entrepreneurship and higher education literatures suggest that universities cannot generate significant knowledge spillovers unless knowledge creation is followed by knowledge transformation and commercialization. Although several university business models have been proposed in the literature, extant studies assume that the elements required by and involved in the creation of new knowledge for commercialization are automatically aligned. A paucity of research exists explaining how entrepreneurial and knowledge capital congruence contributes to teaching, research and entrepreneurial activity – the ‘three-ring entrepreneurial university’. This study develops a conceptual business model of entrepreneurial universities, and introduces and demonstrates how knowledge spillover occurs, which stakeholders are involved and at which level of entrepreneurial university (individual, organizational, institutional).

摘要

企业家精神和高等教育文献表明，除非知识创造伴随着知识转化和商业化，否则大学无法产生重大的知识溢出。尽管在文献中已经提出了几种大学商业模式，但是现有的研究假设，商业化新知识的创造和创造所涉及的要素是自动对齐的。目前尚缺乏研究来说明企业家和知识资本的一致性如何促进教学，研究和企业家活动，即“三环企业家大学”。这项研究建立了创业型大学的概念性商业模型，并介绍和演示了知识溢出是如何发生的，
