Abstract

Scientists in the principal investigator (PI) role for publicly funded research are required to influence, shape and deliver on scientific, economic, technological and societal outcomes. To realize these outcomes, PIs need to boundary span between different stakeholders. There is a growing body of literature and empirical studies within entrepreneurship, innovation and strategic management fields that highlight how influential these PIs are in creating value for multiple stakeholders. The aim of this chapter is to explore some of the key factors that influence the boundary spanning entrepreneurial opportunity recognition of PIs through a conceptual framework.
