(Universidad EAFIT, 2023) Urrego Ramírez, Lina Marcela; Ortega Álvarez, Ana María
Universities have an important role in society through the generation of high-value-added knowledge. One of the mechanisms for this knowledge to reach society and the market are academic spin-off companies. According to that, this work is an investigation into the development of these companies under the company builder model. Using the case study research method, it was found that to develop such companies under this model, two processes are carried out, which are creation and consolidation. Each one is made up of different stages and activities. In the process of creating academic spin-offs, the stages are alignment of expectations, definition of the opportunity and preorganization. In the consolidation process, the stages are spin-off period and sustainable returns. There are two fundamental actors in both the creation and consolidation processes, the university, and the company builder. Each one participates according to their role and capabilities. The factors that facilitate and inhibit both the creation and consolidation processes of academic spin-offs are also identified. Finally, it was concluded that the support of both the company builder and the university allowed the development of these companies.
