The Institutional Context of Incubation: The Case of Academic Incubators in India
研究指出孵化器理论多基于自由市场假设，忽略了制度背景的影响；通过印度学术孵化器的案例，展示制度视角如何揭示新兴经济体中孵化器运作的更多细节。
ABSTRACT We introduce incubators as an organizational form intended to facilitate entrepreneurship. The theorizing and research on incubators have been primarily anchored in market failure perspective and carry over the assumptions about a free market economy, mostly implicitly into the empirical work. This ignores the influence of the institutional context and obscures processes that may come into play in emerging economies like India. Using Scott's model (2008) of institutional context, we argue how the institutional context provides a complementary perspective that may reveal a richer picture of incubator operation in emerging economies. We illustrate this in the case of academic incubators in India.
