Summary
While the US has traditionally been successful in commercialising new technologies, Europe is confronted with an increasing dependency upon fast developing technologies like biotechnology or ICT, despite having some of the best universities in the world. This book will explore the key attributes of commercialising academic knowledge, focusing on spin-offs. Bringing together the visions and best practices used by leading academics and professionals across Europe, Sven H. De Cleyn and Gunter Festel offer new and practical insights on technology transfer in an attempt to resolve the European Paradox. Innovative contributions provide new insights into the special approaches used by European institutes when it comes to fostering and supporting technology transfer activities and the creation of new academic spin-off ventures. This book illustrates the tools they have developed via compelling examples of successful corporate alliances with academic institutes and public research organisations. Practical and insightful, this book will appeal to researchers, policy-makers and educators interested in technology transfer and high-tech entrepreneurship. Investors will also gain from a greater understanding of the benefits of academic spin-offs and technology transfer offices will find a wealth of information to help improve operations for their creation.
Formatted Contents Note
Introduction
What is the current state of knowledge transfer at research institutions in Europe, what are the main challenges and why does it matter?
Part I: Shaping the Ecosystem
1. I3P as university business incubator – A dual mission in technology transfer and start-up ecosystem development; 2. Strategies for designing new venture units in complex contexts; 3. TU Berlin - An entrepreneurial university in an entrepreneurial city
Part II: Supporting and Coaching Spin-Offs
4. Systematic spin-off processes in university-industry ecosystems; 5. Supporting new spin-off ventures – Experiences from a university start-up program; 6. ‘Intrapreneurship at the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft’: How to stimulate greater entrepreneurship among researchers
Part III: Financing Spin-Offs and Technology Transfer
7. Incubation to address the ‘innovation gap’; 8. The Seed Challenge
Part IV: Innovative Tools for Technology Transfer
9. Founding Angels as an emerging angel investment model to support early stage high-tech spin-offs; 10. Flipping the knowledge transfer model using start-ups: How entrepreneurs can stimulate faster adoption of academic knowledge; 11. Stimulating student entrepreneurship within a traditional university model: The case of the AU Student Incubator
Part V: International Perspective on Academic Spin-Offs and Technology Transfer
12. What Europe still has to learn from the US in academic innovation
Part VI: Conclusion
13. Academic spin-offs and technology transfer in Europe – Concluding insights and outlook
