| description | Previous studies suggest that academics and researchers working in universities
and other institutions of higher education play an important role in ensuring the
sustainability of technology entrepreneurship. The intent of this exploratory qualitative
study is to extend our understanding of the roles of universities in assisting Malaysian
Bumiputera technology-based firms (TBFs) to sustain their business. Based on an
inductive qualitative approach, this study has uncovered three main roles of university
academics in the sustainability of Bumiputera TBFs:
1) cultivating entrepreneurial cultures,
2) commercialising university research, and
3) strengthening university-industry linkages. |
