Abstract

How spin-offs access resources from their parent organization along the process of setting up of the new venture? This is the main question explored in this article. We use an institutional perspective and the resource based view to analyse resource endowments received for 30 spin-offs from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil. Our findings shows that the spin-offs studied have accessed a set of resources from the parent organization and that the profile of these resources changes within the entrepreneurial orientation of the university. We could identify different configuration of resource endowments for academic spin-offs, in different institutional and organizational contexts.
