@shvidkjaer@Altingetdk Godt skriv, Søren. Meget enig. En tilføjelse vil være at tid ikke er det eneste parameter. Man bør også se på hvordan man kan strukturere programmet og sikre god vejledning. Men det er naturligvis mere komplekst end blot at forlænge perioden.

Why do promising science-based ventures struggle to scale up? In a new study, @PeterKalum shows how ventures struggle to adapt their identity when they scale and move from “lab to market”.

When the government suddenly cuts research funds in an area, researchers turn to private sources, like companies,
The result is a drop in high-tech entrepreneurship & basic research papers, and an increase in low-quality patents as the results of research become less accessible.
Very cool study showing that teaching business model design, networking and team work helps entrepreneurs a lot. A nice motivational boost for us teaching entrepreneurship 🙂

Hence, managers need to plan how to develop the identity. In this regard, my study suggests that maintaining the old identity is problematic. The key is to formulate a new one that fits the rapid change that the venture is undertaking.
The key takeaway for managers is that while it is crucial to secure funding and develop markets, they also need to pay attention to the venture’s identity. When growing, the identity is like that of a teenager: it can be pulled in different directions by its environment.
