Abstract

Purpose Scholars have emphasized intellectual capital’s importance for universities in obtaining competitive advantages and creating value. The purpose of this paper is to identify the influences of two components of intellectual capital, relational and human capital at the international level, and psychological capital on international orientation of academic entrepreneurs, and the mediating effects of international relational and human capital.Design/methodology/approach On the basis of a literature review, a theoretical model is proposed to explain the relationship between the studied variables. Our hypotheses are tested on a sample of 173 academic spin-offs of Spanish universities using bootstrapping methodology.Findings The results show that the international market relational capital and international human capital of academic entrepreneurs influence their international orientation, and that their psychological capital is directly, and indirectly, related to international orientation through international human capital and international market relational capital.Practical implications This study provides a better understanding of the antecedents of the international orientation of academic entrepreneurs, which would provide an important contribution to the literature on intellectual capital, academic entrepreneurship and internationalization. The achieved results highlight important implications for training of academic entrepreneurs and for managers and management teams of companies willing to enter, or even those already operating in, international markets.Originality/value In this study, the international orientation of academic entrepreneurs is explained through the psychological capital that is studied jointly with two components of intellectual capital, relational and human capital at the international level. Although some recent work has focused on the study of the internationalization of academic spin-off, this line of research is still incipient.
学术创业的国际化取向:关系资本、人力资本和心理资本的作用
学者们强调智力资本对于大学获得竞争优势和创造价值的重要性。本文的目的是在国际层面上识别智力资本的两个组成部分——关系资本和人力资本,以及心理资本对学术企业家国际化取向的影响,以及国际关系资本和人力资本的中介作用。在文献综述的基础上,提出了一个理论模型来解释所研究变量之间的关系。我们的假设在173个西班牙大学的学术衍生品样本上进行了测试,使用了自举方法。研究结果表明,学术型企业家的国际市场关系资本和国际人力资本影响其国际化取向,其心理资本通过国际人力资本和国际市场关系资本直接或间接地与国际化取向产生关联。本研究有助于更好地理解学术企业家国际化取向的前因,对智力资本、学术企业家精神与国际化的相关文献研究具有重要贡献。所取得的成果突出了对培训学术企业家和愿意进入国际市场甚至已经进入国际市场的公司的管理人员和管理团队的重要影响。在本研究中,通过心理资本与智力资本、关系资本和人力资本两个组成部分在国际层面上的共同研究来解释学术企业家的国际取向。虽然最近有一些工作集中在学术衍生的国际化研究上,但这一研究方向仍处于起步阶段。
