Abstract

This paper reflects some of the insights of a broader research in order to discuss them. We focus on the elaboration of a framework to analyse the creation of spin-off firms within the university context. Since this is a recent phenomenon, some of its aspects are still discussed in the literature. In this paper we will focus on: 1) the concept of �spin-off firm�; 2) typology of spin-off firms; 3) the formation process of the spin-off firms, and 4) the determinants of the creation of the spin-offs firms.
