Abstract

Studies addressing the concept of entrepreneurial ecosystem generally focus on identifying its constituent elements and less on the interaction between them. To fill this gap, the study’s objective is to explore the interaction between the university and the other components of the entrepreneurial ecosystem, from a semantic perspective. Using the method of qualitative analysis, respectively the semantic analysis method, the study analyses the role of universities from the North East region of Romania in creating the regional entrepreneurial ecosystem through the influence of regional development strategies. The tools used to achieve the proposed objective were bibliometric analysis and the Tropes software. The obtained results reflect the increased interest of the researchers towards the university and its role in the entrepreneurial development of the communities. On the other hand, regional policy documents do not reflect (at least at semantic level) the role that universities have in creating the regional entrepreneurial ecosystem.
