Academic Spin-off Management: A Bibliometric Study

Abstract

This research broadens the understanding of university spin-off management through a bibliometric analysis of select literature on the subject. Using the ProknowC method, papers published between 2011 and 2021 in the Scopus database were systematically analysed. The process resulted in a portfolio of 37 relevant papers that aligned with the research topics that were subject to bibliometric analyses. The results are expected to contribute to academia, policymaking, and managers in developing theoretical frameworks and actions for academic spin-offs.
