Entrepreneurial Dynamism and the Built Environment in the Evolution of University Entrepreneurial Ecosystems (2019)
Journal Article
Johnson, D., Bock, A. J., & George, G. (2019). Entrepreneurial Dynamism and the Built Environment in the Evolution of University Entrepreneurial Ecosystems. Industrial and Corporate Change, 28(4), 941-959. https://doi.org/10.1093/icc/dtz034

University-centered entrepreneurial ecosystems (UCEEs) are complex webs of entrepreneurs, researchers, institutional support structures, and the built environment. We study the relationship between the built environment and the dynamism of the behavi...

Regenerative Medicine Ecosystems and the Built Environment at Entrepreneurial Universities (2017)
Journal Article
Bock, A. J., & Johnson, D. (2017). Regenerative Medicine Ecosystems and the Built Environment at Entrepreneurial Universities. Proceedings - Academy of Management, 2017(1), 11914. https://doi.org/10.5465/ambpp.2017.11914abstract

In some technology-intensive sectors, high discovery costs, specialized knowledge requirements and long time frames favor research centralization around research universities. In the case of regenerative medicine, uncertainty about downstream market... Read More about Regenerative Medicine Ecosystems and the Built Environment at Entrepreneurial Universities.

Coping with uncertainty: Entrepreneurial sensemaking in regenerative medicine venturing (2016)
Journal Article
Johnson, D., & Bock, A. J. (2017). Coping with uncertainty: Entrepreneurial sensemaking in regenerative medicine venturing. Journal of Technology Transfer, 42(1), 33-58. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10961-015-9465-0

Entrepreneurs face multiple sources and types of uncertainty during venturing activity. Converting novel or speculative opportunities into viable commercial businesses requires entrepreneurs to address or even leverage uncertainty. This process is es...

Entrepreneurial Ecosystems: Fixing the Triple Helix (2015)
Journal Article
Bock, A. J., & Johnson, D. (2015). Entrepreneurial Ecosystems: Fixing the Triple Helix. European Business Review, 73-76

In knowledge-intensive fields, new ventures live or die within entrepreneurial ecosystems. This article shows how policymakers can nurture entrepreneurial ecosystems to fix broken triple helixes at the university-industry (U-I) boundary. The authors...

Regenerative medicine translation: Cross-national analysis of entrepreneurial ecosystem development (2015)
Journal Article
Johnson, D., & Bock, A. J. (2015). Regenerative medicine translation: Cross-national analysis of entrepreneurial ecosystem development. Academy of Management Proceedings, 2015(1), 12653-12653. https://doi.org/10.5465/ambpp.2015.12653abstract

In the field of regenerative medicine, new ventures face unformed markets and inconsistent industry practices. We study two university- centric regenerative medicine ecosystems to explore the characteristics of venturing activity and ecosystem develo...

Coping with unresolvable uncertainty: A situational analysis of regenerative medicine venturing (2014)
Journal Article
Johnson, D., & Bock, A. J. (2014). Coping with unresolvable uncertainty: A situational analysis of regenerative medicine venturing. Academy of Management Proceedings, 2014(1), 11294-11294. https://doi.org/10.5465/ambpp.2014.11294abstract

Acquiring resources, such as knowledge, is a fundamental entrepreneurial task during venture development. However, high levels of uncertainty challenge resource identification and access, hence collaboration and knowledge exchange mechanisms are valu...
