“…This lack of agreement on its definition, as reflected by the views of Cunha et al (2013), prevents both an appropriate empirical application and a comparison among studies. Nevertheless, all studies reviewed were unanimous in two aspects: the importance of technology and the positive economic impact of this organisational model (Autio, 1997;Bollinger et al, 1983;Brandkamp, 1997;Cunha et al, 2013;Fontes and Coombs, 2001;Storey and Tether, 1998).…”

New technology-based firms (NTBFs) are responsible for the dissemination of technological innovation and industrial boosting, and have become attractive topics of research in the scientific field. However, literature is not uniform in its understanding of the concepts and definitions involving these organisations. Starting from the assumption that clarifying this distinction may contribute to the scientific production of knowledge directed to NTBFs' specificities, this study first aims to suggest a new typology for NTBFs, differentiating between independent and dependent NTBFs. Second, this study presents an overview of recent innovation management studies on independent NTBFs among the top ten technology innovation management journals through a systematic literature review. Research results indicate various distinctive features between these organisations and the existence of several literature gaps to be exploited, such as the licensing of innovation and intra-industrial innovation architectures.
