“…Mode 2 research is problem-centric knowledge production (Frost & Osterloh 2003) extending basic research beyond scientific application (Amara et al 2019). Mode 2 research is multidisciplinary (Callaghan 2019) and trans-disciplinary collaboration promoting interaction between scientific and non-scientific actors (Alsaeed, Hadjri & Nawratek 2023). This leads to a network of diverse stakeholders and interface mechanisms, which collectively can be seen as an entrepreneurial university.…”

Background: Universities globally face challenges of becoming entrepreneurial, delivering third mission activities, including the support of academic entrepreneurship. Abundant research exists on academic entrepreneurs in the United Sates (USA) and Europe. Limited research exists on understanding pathways of academic entrepreneurship in South African Universities.Aim: The aim was to critically review the pathway of research commercialisation of academics at a research-intensive university.Setting: This single case study focuses on one research-intensive university; a pioneer in the field of academic entrepreneurship in South Africa.Methods: A qualitative research approach following a single-case study design was selected to investigate a phenomenon within its natural setting, using purposeful sampling and semi-structured interviews. The data were thematically analysed.Results: The nature of research outputs takes a hybrid form, the awareness of the commercialisation of research is ineffectively communicated, supporting mechanisms Technology Transfer Office (TTO) are in place, factors hampering research commercialisation include time constraints and academics’ willingness to partner with the university.Conclusion: Context is bi-modal, meaning the institution is orientated towards basic research, Mode 1, while there is a transition of the research culture towards commercialisation of research, Mode 2, contributing to ineffective communication within the institution. Commercialisation extends the life cycle of research, and the recognition for publication in ranking metrics contributes to tension between commercialisation and publication of research.Contribution: Theoretically, this baseline study provided insights into the pathway of Academic Entrepreneurship in the context of an intensive-research university. Managerially, this article reflects that ineffective communication of transition from Mode 1 to Mode 2 leads to internal tension.

The research was conducted to examine the effect of logistics skills and learning orientation on performance outcomes in exporting foreign trade companies operating in Istanbul. The reason for choosing these companies is that logistics capabilities become more important in exporting companies in terms of logistics performance and financial and growth performance. A sample of 983 participants was taken to establish and test the model, and a scale consisting of a total of 43 statements was presented to them. Analyzes were performed using SmartPLS 3.3.5. For a good organizational performance, export-oriented companies should attach importance to learning orientation and have logistics capabilities in order to constantly improve themselves. In the research, it is supported by hypotheses that the logistics capabilities and learning orientation of export-oriented companies positively affect both their logistics performance and their financial and growth performances. The research is innovative in that it collects data from export-oriented companies and examines both their logistics capabilities and learning orientations. The sample group consists of export-oriented companies operating in Istanbul. For this reason, it would be correct to evaluate the results obtained in the research only in terms of export-oriented companies and not to generalize.
