Purpose: Besides their educational and research functions, universities are currently essential for dissemination of knowledge in innovation processes, thus affecting the economic and social development of their environments. The formalized cooperation of the Slovak University of Agriculture (SUA) in Nitra and its partners in research and science was examined in this context.Methodology/Approach: Formal cooperation of the university with working life partners in terms of their sectoral and geographic affiliation was analyzed in the paper. The Central Register of Contracts and the SUA Internal Register of Contracts were used as principal sources of data. Based on interviews and selected studies conducted in the Slovak Republic we further focused on identification of barriers to the transfer of the results of research into practice.Findings: The paper confirmed cognitive and spatial proximity between SUA and its partners. The sectoral focus of the partners is closely related to the profile of the university. From the spatial point of view, more significant concentration of SUA partners in the region of Western Slovakia was confirmed. We identified several barriers to the transfer of the results of scientific research activities from the university environment into practical life.Research Limitation/implication: We conducted research on the example of one university, thus it is not possible to generalize the results.Originality/Value of paper: The paper analyzes the collaboration of the University in science and research with partners in practical life and identifies weaknesses and barriers to this cooperation.

The transfer of research and development results into application sphere takes place in the university environment in a variety of ways. One of them is the establishment of a spin-off firm. From general definition of a spin-off, it is an independent firm founded to commercialize university knowledge. The understanding of spin-off firms and spin-off processes in the literature differs significantly. The aim of the paper is to identify existing and potential spin-off companies in the environment of the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, to describe their specificities in comparison to orthodox defined spin-off firms, to evaluate the conditions for their establishment, to examine the process of commercialization of intellectual property from the birth of the idea to the establishment of own firm or technology licensing. On the examples of selected spin-off firms, we analyze the personal motives and barriers that influenced the founders in the development of technology and the commercialization of research results and the key factors that influenced the founder in the development and commercialization of technology. The contribution is based on case studies of three spin-off firms founded by university staff, in order to exploit the knowledge produced by university activities with a prospect of profiting.
