Abstract

University technology transfer constitutes an important pillar in challenging the transition of inventions to innovations. Its contribution to the development of entrepreneurial ecosystems lies therefore at the heart of entrepreneurial activity. While specific approaches model such ecosystems as quadruple helix, consisting of the interplay of government, university, enterprises, and society, broader approaches attempt to decompose such ecosystems into more granular single actors such as enterprising individuals, start-ups, established firms, (regional) policy makers, venture capitalists, etc. This paper focuses on the heart of knowledge generation and investigates practices of university-based technology knowledge dissemination by reviewing current approaches and best practices. We merge our conceptual findings into a micro-macro-level model in order to provide theoretical as well as practical implications to support the transition from inventions to innovations.
