“…Specifically, the literature often overlooks how universities nurture entrepreneurial activities from the conceptual stage through to market realisation. This gap includes a lack of detailed understanding of how university actors such as technology transfer offices (Siegel et al, 2003), commercialisation centres, and centers for entrepreneurship and enterprise, community connections within universities support the entire lifecycle of entrepreneurship-from idea generation to validation to commercialisation and scaling (Kuratko & Morris, 2024;Siegel & Wessner, 2012). Research on entrepreneurial universities yet lacks understanding of how entrepreneurial process can develop dynamic capabilities in teaching, research and commercialisation how it may affect university' s third mission (Abreu & Grinevich, 2013;Abreu et al, 2016;Belitski et al, 2019;Compagnucci & Spigarelli, 2020).…”

Entrepreneurial universities play a crucial role in supporting regional economy and addressing social challenges. Despite the significant contributions in the entrepreneurial university literature, little is still known about the process of entrepreneurial idea development, validation and commercialisation within the university. Inspired by this gap in the knowledge transfer literature we draw on three pillars of entrepreneurial university–teaching, research and commercialisation and explain how entrepreneurial process set up to nurture entrepreneurial opportunities within university develops dynamic capabilities that shape product commercialisation at university. We use the case study of the Henley Centre of Entrepreneurship at University of Reading in the United Kingdom, secondary data sources and sixteen interviews with university ecosystem stakeholders to explain the role of dynamic capabilities in entrepreneurial process for university to become entrepreneurial. The process which describes the entrepreneurs journey comprises five stages could become part of entrepreneurial university curricular and embedding university practices into regional entrepreneurial ecosystem.
