Abstract

This study investigates the Principal Investigator's (PI's) role in enhancing Technology Transfer (TT) culture within a University Ecosystem (UE). We propose an approach for diagnosing TT culture within a UE at the micro- and meso-levels. The approach employs a survey to assess the UE's maturity regarding the core competencies of a PI. The approach: (i) assesses UE's maturity and categorises its researchers regarding the PI's core competencies, (ii) assesses researchers' resources and capabilities, and (iii) assesses the UE's TT culture. We applied the proposed approach to a large Brazilian university for testing and validation. The findings offer a comprehensive overview of UE's TT culture and highlight the PI's pivotal role in establishing a robust UE. As a contribution, we offer a practical approach to diagnosing a university ecosystem's TT culture through micro and meso-level analysis, advancing research on PI's role in aligning a UE to the Entrepreneurial University (EU) concept.

首席研究员在大学创业生态系统中的作用的微观和中观分析

本研究探讨了首席研究员（PI）在增强大学生态系统（UE）中的技术转让（TT）文化方面所起的作用。我们提出了一种在微观和中观层面诊断 UE 内技术转让文化的方法。该方法通过调查来评估 UE 在 PI 核心能力方面的成熟度。该方法：(i) 评估 UE 的成熟度，并根据 PI 的核心能力对其研究人员进行分类；(ii) 评估研究人员的资源和能力；(iii) 评估 UE 的 TT 文化。我们将建议的方法应用于巴西一所大型大学进行测试和验证。研究结果全面概述了 UE 的 TT 文化，并强调了首席研究员在建立健全的 UE 中的关键作用。作为一项贡献，我们提供了一种实用的方法，通过微观和中观层面的分析来诊断大学生态系统的 TT 文化，推动了关于 PI 在使大学生态系统符合创业型大学（EU）理念方面所起作用的研究。
