“…This paper outlined how universities can contribute to creating non-commercial forms of AE, answering other calls from the scientific literature (Neves and Brito, 2020; Siegel and Wright, 2015; Waldman et al. , 2021; Choi et al. , 2022).…”

“…Often, such IP outcomes lead to the establishment of a spin-off company or are transferred directly to the industry. This dynamic is well delineated and described in the literature, particularly for developed economies where it is common for governments and industries to invest in universities to produce further innovations (Galati et al, 2020;Choi et al, 2022).…”

PurposeDespite growing scholarly interest in academic entrepreneurship (AE) few studies have examined its non-commercial aspects and how it contributes to meeting grand societal challenges. One explanation for this may be the continuing focus of AE on intellectual property commercialization. This paper aims to address this knowledge gap by uncovering how universities can contribute to promoting non-commercial forms of AE.Design/methodology/approachThis paper uses the human capital theoretical lens to make its argument and applies it to data obtained from exploratory qualitative research (55 semi-structured interviews and nine focus groups) in the developing countries of Bolivia, Colombia and Ecuador.FindingsUniversities can promote different forms of non-commercial AE even in the absence of sophisticated resources for innovation, through the stimulation of the specific human capital of the university community resulting from activities where they help others.Originality/valueThis paper proposes a general framework for advancing theory development in AE and its non-commercial forms, based on data obtained in uncharted territories for AE.
