摘要
学术创业是经济发展的重要推力,成功的学术创业需要跨越从基础科学研究到产品研发创造的“死亡之谷”和从产品研发创造到商业价值实现的“达尔文海”两大断层。数字技术的兴起与发展为跨越两大断层提供了新机遇,而现有学术创业研究对如何有效运用数字技术跨越两大断层缺乏系统深入的探究。在对国内外相关研究进行文献综述和理论逻辑推演的基础上,应用知识基础理论和社会网络理论,构建数字学术创业理论模型框架,揭示学术创业主体如何利用数字技术通过知识管理数字化与网络治理数字化两条路径跨越两大断层,最终实现成果产品化、商业化。研究结果可为动态复杂环境下激发数字学术创业主体发展新质生产力提供理论指导和借鉴。
Academic entrepreneurship serves as a significant driving force for economic development;its success primarily lies in bridging the two major gaps among the fundamental scientific research to product development and creation within the"Valley of Death",and then to the realization of commercial value within the"Darwinian Sea".However,the advent of digital technology introduces an increasingly volatile,uncertain,complex,and ambiguous(VUCA)dynamic environment for academic entrepreneurship,resulting in the coexistence of emerging risks and opportunities within the two major gaps of the academic entrepreneurial process.More importantly,current research is overall in a fragmented state,with a primary focus on speculative inquiries into how a specific type of digital technology can empower academic entrepreneurship.The mechanisms by which digital technology empowers academic entrepreneurship have not received thorough exploration.Consequently,there is an imperative requirement to formulate and refine theories pertaining to digital academic entrepreneurship.Thus,on the basis of a literature review and logical deduction,a theoretical model framework for digital academic entrepreneurship is proposed so as to promote the development of academic entrepreneurship theory.Primarily,through a nuanced examination of concepts pertaining to digital technology and academic entrepreneurship,this study meticulously defines digital academic entrepreneurship within the authentic context and characteristics of academic entrepreneurship and digital technology development in China.It posits digital academic entrepreneurship as academic entrepreneurial activities embedded with digital technology in the VUCA environment,aiming to more effectively transform scientific research within academic organizations into commercial value.The inherent characteristics of digital academic entrepreneurship encompass expansive field scope,strong institutional legitimacy,and diverse forms.Furthermore,it analyzes and compares the two key stages of the digital academic entrepreneurship process:the productization of outcomes and the commercialization of outcomes.Subsequently,following knowledge-based theory and social network theory,the study makes a rigorous review of 270 relevant pieces of literature on digital academic entrepreneurship both domestically and internationally with theoretical tracing and logical deduction,and then it constructs a conceptual model framework for digital academic entrepreneurship.This framework explains how the incorporation of digital technology elevates the digitization levels of knowledge management and network governance for academic entrepreneurial entities,thereby enhancing the pathways to productize and commercialize outcomes in academic entrepreneurship.Finally,it further refines the theoretical model framework of digital academic entrepreneurship,proposing noteworthy research topics and emerging directions for future investigations in the field,building upon identified gaps in existing research and emerging phenomena in digital academic entrepreneurship.These include the operational definition of core variables in the digital academic entrepreneurship theory model,further refinement and empirical testing of the theoretical model,and a dedicated examination of the impact mechanisms of artificial intelligence on academic entrepreneurship.The main contributions of this research are its focus on the theoretical model framework for digital academic entrepreneurship,which enriches and expands the conceptual foundations of digital academic entrepreneurship,clarifies the stage-specific objectives within this domain;it also proposes pathways through which digital technologies play a pivotal role in digital academic entrepreneurship,and elaborates on the academic entrepreneurship process of academic entrepreneurs achieving productization and commercialization through digitalization of knowledge management and network governance.To a certain extent,this study extends traditional academic entrepreneurship theory,and its findings can offer theoretical guidance and insights for academic entrepreneurs in the digital technology era.Future research efforts could be paid to clarify the connotation and extension of concepts of core variables in the theoretical model of digital academic entrepreneurship,such as digital technology embedding,productization and commercialization of academic entrepreneurial achievements,digitalization of knowledge management and network governance;moreover,empirical research methods such as grounded theory and quantitative research are needed to expand the depth and breadth of the proposed theoretical model;and the impact mechanism of artificial intelligence on academic entrepreneurship is also warranted of academic attention.
