University-based incubators, Incubation process, Academic entrepreneurshipResumen
Objetivo de la investigación: Esclarecer el papel de las incubadoras empresariales en las universidades investigadoras en el favorecimiento del proceso emprendedor, a través de la explicación del valor añadido de las actividades incubación, por medio de la teoría de las opciones reales y de la visión basada en los recursos.
Metodología: A través de trece entrevistas semiestructuradas con el personal y la administración de las incubadoras universitarias se ha llevado a cabo un estudio de caso en profundidad de cinco universidades investigadoras malasias.
Originalidad/Relevancia: Integrar la teoría de la las opciones reales y la visión basada en los resultados para comprender los roles de las incubadoras universitarias en el apoyo a los procesos de emprendimiento, elaborada en las tres fases del proceso de incubación: la pre incubación, la incubación y la fase de post-incubación.
Resultados: Las incubadoras universitarias tienen un papel decisivo a la hora de facilitar los procesos de emprendimiento a través de la selección de emprendedores potenciales, de la movilización de recursos óptimos, tanto tangibles como intangible y del monitoreo del proceso de emprendimiento. Las cinco incubadoras universitarias estudiadas demostraron tener relaciones inter-organizativas con las diferentes partes interesadas y contaban con un gerente capacitado para actuar como eje facilitador durante el proceso de incubación desde la fase de pre-incubación hasta la fase incubación. Sin embargo, hay poca evidencia sobre el proceso de seguimiento post-incubación encaminado a apoyar la etapa de crecimiento empresarial, siendo esta una fase crucial para la continuación, supervivencia y crecimiento.
Contribución teórico-metodológica: Se adopta un enfoque multi-teórico de una teoría guiada por las opciones reales y de la visión basada en recursos para explicar los roles de las incubadoras universitarias en los procesos de emprendimiento.
Contribuciones sociales y de gestión: Proporciona perspectivas, mejores prácticas y un marco con respecto al proceso de incubación en las incubadoras universitarias malasias, y cómo el papel de estas puede ser mejorado para conducir a unos procesos de emprendimiento más satisfactorios.
