  1. Wither The University? Henry Etzkowitz Stanford University, H-STAR Institute Triple Helix Research Group Henryetz@stanford.edu University of Copenhagen, Sept. 2012

  2. Triple Helix Thesis • University plays leading role in Knowledge-based Society: shift from secondary to primary institutional sphere • Taking the role of the other e.g., university forming firms; government as venture capitalist; industry raising training to higher levels • Boundaries as integrative and regulatory structures via Interface Modalities such as Incubators, Technology Transfer Offices (TTO’s) and Science Parks

  3. Statist Triple Helix Government Academia Industry

  4. Statist Triple Helix • Government leads other spheres • E.g. France, China • Government-pulled Triple Helix

  5. State Laissez-faire Triple Helix Industry Academia

  6. Laissez-Faire Triple Helix Separate Spheres • University initiates triple helix interactions • E.g. US fedearl government ideologically precluded from taking the lead except in national emergencies like wartime • Firms expected to be strongly competitive, not cooperative, until recent changes in anti-trust laws opening the way for “open innovation.”

  7. Convergence Towards Common Model State Innovation at the Intersection of Institutional Spheres Industry Academia Civil Society: Base of Triple Helix

  8. Knowledge-Based Innovation Mode 2 Pasteur’s Quadrant; Bohr, Edison National Systems of Innovation Open Innovation

  9. The Entrepreneurial University Second Academic Revolution: entrepreneurship, incubation and firm-formation as third academic mission Entrepreneurial University is non-linear: can be built on a teaching as well as a research university base Entrepreneurial University is combinatorial: entrepreneurship and research integrated (firm and academic lab in one, e.g.4G at PUCRS)

  10. Bi-Evolution and Hybridization of University Missions • Teaching: Individuals and Organizations • Research: Individual and Group • Economic and Social Development: Companies and Region

  11. Circulation of Individuals in Triple Helix U U U G G I I I

  12. Professors of Practice (PoPs) • Turns traditional PoP model “on its head” from teaching to research • PoP Types: • Forward linear: faculty entrepreneurs moving ½ time to Industry • Reverse linear: Industry entrepreneurs (PhDs) moving ½ time to University • Entrepreneurial role models for students and faculty • Develop large-scale projects, strengthen ties with business, retain faculty entrepreneurs in university Self-sustaining virtuous circle between University and Industry

  13. Novum Trivium • Model for reform of undergraduate education • Update classical Trivium of grammar, rhetoric and dialectics • Structure: • A Traditional Discipline • Innovation and Entrepreneurship • Another Language and Culture

  14. Proposal for PhD Reform • Research PhD of 3 Published articles Entrepreneurial PhD of 2 published articles and a new third element: • Translational research leading to a practical result

  15. OTL Study Focus on Serial Entrepreneurs Identification of Excluded middle of good ideas but lacking entrepreneurial experience Availability of Eco-system fallacy If its not broke don’t fix it Vs If its doing well; make it better

  16. StartX Accelerator Student Government Initiated Application by groups (proto-firms) Coaching and mentoring Graduation – Demo Day 12 per quarter, 29 this summer 6% of Stanford students have applied Faculty also joining
