摘要

For academic spin-offs I analyze the length of the time period between the founder's leaving of academia and the establishment of her firm. A duration analysis reveals that a longer time-lag is caused by the necessity of assembling complementary skills, either by acquisition by a single founder or by Searching fro Suitable team members. Furthermore, new ventures are established faster if there has been high-level technology transfer, if the founders have access to university infrastructure, Or if they receive informal support by former colleagues.
