“…Concerning H8, it was predicted that entrepreneurial intention positively related to making entrepreneurial behavior, and this was accepted. This finding is similar to previous studies (Shirokova et al, 2016;Shinnar et al, 2018;Bogatyreva et al, 2019;Yi, 2020). Entrepreneurial behavior refers to taking actions, not mere intentions; it is necessary to translate these intentions into reality or action to create entrepreneurial behavior.…”

“…According to Ajzen (1991), theory of planned behavior defined intentions as an individual's belief and perception of the performance of a specific behavior. Some scholars argued that entrepreneurial intention ultimately leads to entrepreneurial behavior (Shirokova et al, 2016;Yi, 2020). However, a recent study stated that entrepreneurial intention is the strongest predictor for entrepreneurial behavior (Neneh, 2019a).…”

“…Entrepreneurial intention refers to the intent to formulate a new business as well as select an alternate career to common employment (Ward et al, 2019a;Yi, 2020). As suggested by several authors, intentions are the best predictor for measuring entrepreneurial behavior (Fitzsimmons and Douglas, 2011;Ajzen and Sheikh, 2013).…”

“…Consequently, we still lack the understanding of what kind of influences translates intentions into actions in the entrepreneurial background, particularly in the relationship between entrepreneurial passion, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, entrepreneurial alertness, and proactive personality. This research is still under-explored and in its development stage (Bogatyreva et al, 2019;Yi, 2020). Thus, it is essential to connect all these indicators to provide new theoretical and practical insights.…”

This study investigated the role of entrepreneurial passion in recognition of opportunity, developing entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and entrepreneurial intention, in the shaping of entrepreneurial actions in the presence of proactive personality. This study applied partial least squares structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses on a sample of 346 university students from Jiangsu province, China. The output of the study showed that entrepreneurial passion positively and significantly influenced entrepreneurial alertness, entrepreneurial self-efficacy to entrepreneurial intention, and entrepreneurial behavior. The findings also showed that a proactive personality positively and significantly moderated the relationship between entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial behavior.

“…Whilst the institutional theory acknowledges the complex set of pressures from each actor of the triple helix (university, government, industry/society) in shaping the university commercialization ecosystem (Doanh et al 2021;Scott and Amarante 2016). Ordinarily, the commercialization of university research outputs is expected to emanate from the iterative interplay among regulative, normative, and cultural-cognitive pressures emanating from each actor of the triple helix (Gibson and Foss 2017;Foss and Gibson 2015;Heitor 2015).…”

The rising thrust to commercialize university research outputs and innovations has emerged as a significant policy challenge regarding the higher education sector's capacity to generate socioeconomic benefit. Despite emphasizing the socio-economic benefits of increased research commercialization in the policy statements and discussions, the issue of institutional factors affecting the commercialization of research outputs in universities is less mentioned. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the institutional factors, practices, and processes that influence the commercialization of research outputs in universities. A cross-sectional design was adopted and data was collected from a sample of 308 heads of academic departments in 23 chartered Universities in Uganda. The hypothesis was tested using a covariance-based Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) method in AMOS. The results indicate that institutional factors have a significant impact on the commercialization of research outputs. Therefore, there is a need for research commercialization policies such as policies on patents, and revenue-sharing frameworks in addition to training researchers in entrepreneurial skills and involving the whole change of mindset. In addition, universities need to institutionalize research commercialization targets into the performance management framework of staff such as staff appraisals, rewards, and promotions among others.

Knowledge Drivers, Business Collaboration and Competitiveness in Rural and Urban Regions

et al. 2020

Many rural regions are characterised by low technology-intensive activities. Their predominant focus is often on primary, agri-food, and natural resources and services sectors, and there is a competitive gap with respect to urban regions. The objective of this article is to determine the contribution of the innovation system to regional development, distinguishing between rural and urban regions. Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) was used to study 256 EU NUTS 2 regions. The analysis helped identify 'recipes' of drivers of regional competitiveness in rural and urban regions. These innovation recipes consist of varying combinations of private and public R&D expenditure, the presence or absence of top-ranked universities and the percentage of SMEs that collaborate in innovation activities. In rural regions, excellence in higher education combined with strong public and private R&D offers an important recipe for regional competitiveness. Alternative pathways include the presence of business collaboration as a driver of competitiveness.
