In this unique and timely volume, Scott Shane systematically
explains the formation of university spinoff companies and their
role in the commercialization of university technology and wealth
creation in the United States and elsewhere. The importance of
university spinoff activity is discussed and the historical
development of university spinoff ventures is traced over time.
Scott Shane provides in-depth analysis of the four major factors
that jointly influence spinoff activity: the university and
societal environment, the technology developed at universities, the
industries in which spinoffs operate, and the people involved. He
documents the process of company creation, focusing on the
formation of spinoffs, the transformation of the spinoff's
technology into new products and services, the identification and
exploitation of a market for these new products and services and
the acquisition of financial resources. Also detailed are the
factors that enhance and inhibit the performance of university
spinoffs, as well as the effect that they have on the institutions
that spawn them. Authoritative and highly readable, this volume
will appeal to scholars researching the spinoff phenomenon,
university technology transfer officers, inventors, policymakers,
external entrepreneurs and investors.
