Ancient literature comprises religious and scientific documents, tales, poetry and plays, royal edicts and declarations, and other forms of writing that were recorded on a variety of media, including stone, clay tablets, papyri, palm leaves, and metal. 0000135432 00000 n We noticed that three reoccurring practices are important for rich communication practices: boundary spanners (Al-Tabbaa and Ankrah 2016; Barnes et al. Innovation: A knowledge transfer perspective. Login This can lead to confusion when university partners have several senior researchers, and it is unclear who is in control (Barnes et al. While research by (Corley et al. Bruneel, J., DEste, P., & Salter, A. Purpose. It can be wise to start with smaller projects, such as student internships or thesis research, to gain collaboration experience and to learn about the capabilities of a partner. This paper continues with a methodological section that describes our review process. Qualitative research; grounded theory; grounded theory methodology; literature review; research proposal. 31(2), 175188. 163 33 Higher Education, 53(4), 495507. When tacit knowledge needs to be transferred this requires on the job training or the hiring of graduates who worked on the project. Zhu, F., & Hawk, S. (2015). 2014; Plewa et al. 25(2), 162179. This study combined results from 75 papers on knowledge transfer to re-evaluate previous quantitative findings from inter- and intra-organizational studies. And makes it easier to build on previous research. We developed a methodology that overall followed the analytical process of a systematic review but differs from other systematic reviews when it comes to searching and identifying relevant literature. 29(4), 567586. 2014; Plewa et al. These examples are programmatically compiled from various online sources to illustrate current usage of the word 'extant.' Therefore, relatedness of prior knowledge and technological competence help to understand and integrate new knowledge (Daghfous 2004; Santoro and Bierly 2006) and reduces ambiguity. Trust increases with frequent communication. The need to go through the whole knowledge cycle in both phases distinguishes collaborative research from other learning processes. 2013). This thematic paper divides FinTech into three themes, i.e. 2007; Hadjimanolis 2006; Pinheiro et al. Over the past decades, research into academic engagement increased. The initial search strategy was to find papers discussing research partnership*, academic engagement or papers that combined scienc*, academi* or university with industry* or business, in combination with knowledge management, knowledge transfer or technology transfer. 0000187986 00000 n Journal of Knowledge Management, Part of Springer Nature. Hence, ambiguity is negatively related to knowledge transfer and hard to resolve without on the job training (Van Wijk et al. Bjerregaard, T. (2009). 27(1), 93114. 19(1), 3140. RD-7IbR#8UHxS~*g>ki;F Y# Fear for a lack of common interests is reduced by building social capital, which includes, tie-strength, and collaboration experience with the particular partner (Pinheiro et al.

Plewa, C., Korff, N., Baaken, T., & Macpherson, G. (2013a). From the Cambridge English Corpus 2010). If you think you should have access to this content, click to contact our support team. (2016) who discusses three levels of collaboration, low, high and deep, and links them to different knowledge exchange practices. In total we found about 890 unique papers. Such integration would increase the understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Minerva, 47(1), 93114. 2013b). This, however, did not provide many useful results. The Journal of Technology Transfer, Chin, C. M. M., Yap, E. H., & Spowage, A. C. (2011). This helps to integrate the results of the research (McCabe et al. A third feature, and one that attracts little attention, is that reviews go on throughout the duration of a research project rather than the conventional understanding that it is conducted at the beginning of a study and ends there. 15(4), 625647. Gertner, D., Roberts, J., & Charles, D. (2011). An official website of the United States government. Social capital in the form of tie strength and trust reflects the closeness of a relationship and positively influences knowledge transfer (Bloedon and Stokes 1994; Bruneel et al. endstream endobj 1067 0 obj <>stream Universityindustry collaboration: A CoPs approach to KTPs. We could also compare previous research outcomes and draw new conclusions by connecting empirical results with theoretical explanations and by identifying dissimilarities that require more research. (2013). They found that all four steps of the knowledge creation cycle (socialization, externalization, combination and internalization) were needed in the initiation phase, to formulate relevant research questions and goals, and in the knowledge transfer phase, to absorb tacit knowledge. Academic engagement, after all, aims to develop novel knowledge that benefits the academic and industrial partner. Knowledge transfer in universityindustry research partnerships: a review. 12(5), 901918. Entrepreneurial universities and technology transfer: A conceptual framework for understanding knowledge-based economic development. Santoro, M. D., & Gopalakrishnan, S. (2001).

Academic engagement and commercialisation: A review of the literature on universityindustry relations. Following previous research in the field of UI research (for example Perkmann et al. Accessed 1 May. The paper is believed to add value to the understanding of FinTech in light of the emerging threats and opportunities for its various stakeholders. 48(1), 589. It is therefore much welcomed, that since 2013 more research has been conducted into how institutional differences influence knowledge transfer and collaboration success. The U.S. Charter School Landscape: Extant Literature, Gaps in Research Ankrah, S., & AL-Tabbaa, O. 2013b). Differences in organizational goals and culture are a frequently mentioned, but not well defined barrier to academic engagement. 25(4), 4557. Communication practices on the other hand are very important for the quality of knowledge sharing. Because similarity in knowledge background is so important for absorptive capacity, we recommend that this is taken into account in partner selection. If the abstract was unclear about the content, the decision to include a paper was made after scanning the whole paper. 36(3), 316339. Interorganizational collaboration and the locus of innovation: Networks of learning in biotechnology. 0000002106 00000 n Although partners expect to be informed, reports play a minor role in this and are usually only compiled at the end of each phase and perceived as archiving material (Chin et al. Therefore, the following section describes our method in detail. fduWdr6sH( H7R 1@~-87Y9Ck E9k>>SZcYlL[kvsB}`>Oo$VQ |P4`K In adopting this focus we follow a developing interest in organization science that seeks a detailed understanding of what is actually done, or the micro-level, and how to make sense of those activities (Nicolini 2009). (2002). This needs to be confirmed by future research. 2014). Given that these factors relate to differences in knowledge background and the complexity of knowledge we included all research that discussed differences in knowledge background and knowledge characteristics. This paper describes the history and current state of the charter school movement, presents a conceptual model of the charter school system, and reviews the extant research on charter school outcomes. In practice, the role of the industrial partner in data analysis and theory development is limited, even in deep collaborations. The primary criterion for inclusion should be centrality to your topic, within whatever constraints are imposed by instructors, advisers, or publishers. Making university/industry collaborative research succeed. The exact number varies, depending on the purpose of the literature review and the extant literature. 2013a). We aim to contribute to the theoretical development in the field of academic engagement and propose that knowledge transfer provides a valuable perspective. Research Policy, 2015; Sandberg et al. 2016; Plewa et al. First, industrial partners fear that the academic partner is not working on the same goals, due to institutional differences, and that academics use the industrial partner as money cow (Al-Tabbaa and Ankrah 2016; Pinheiro et al. The second important factor that influences knowledge absorption, is differences in knowledge background, referred to as cognitive and epistemic difference. Rethinking the relationship between academia and industry: Qualitative case studies of MIT and Stanford. /S {X6X20Lu)Vsx mWL,;#Pe PX Communication to determine goals and to discuss what information can be published is the most important way to deal with these differences. Extant Research - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics 2002). While knowledge transfer is a bidirectional process. Absorptive capacity: A new perspective on learning and innovation. The three main grounded theory approaches are classic, Straussian and constructivist, and the seminal texts provide conflicting beliefs surrounding the use of literature. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of the findings, reviewed for policymakers and researchers, and a list of remaining research topics in the field of charter school research. L!n5B6z< dr:p ": Oy@9u[;&p2i>EpOh< Sherwood, A. L., & Covin, J. G. (2008). 5(1), 1437. Yet the trust scales used most frequently in the papers we reviewed are the ones intended for analysing business-to-business relations, developed by Saparito et al. Expectation management about what can be achieved in the available time and when results can be expected is also important to keep industrial partners satisfied (Azevedo Ferreira and Rezende Ramos 2015; Barnes et al. Background: Universityindustry relationships and open innovation: Towards a research agenda. Michael T. Compton . 2015; Ulhi et al. A classic approach avoids a pre-study literature review to minimise preconceptions and emphasises the constant comparison method, while the Straussian and constructivist approaches focus more on the beneficial aspects of an initial literature review and researcher reflexivity. As explained in Templier and Par (2015), there are six generic steps involved in conducting a review article: formulating the research question(s) and objective(s), searching the extant literature, screening for inclusion, assessing the quality of primary studies, extracting data, and . A good understanding of a partners needs helps to take these needs into account, also when novel directions are pursued, while open communication raises understanding. Communication is an important facilitator to improve absorptive capacity. What is Research Gap and how to identify research gap | Editage Insights Question: After you have determined what sources to include in your literature review to assess employee contributions in the workplace, you must now compile your review and reflect on the implications of all that you have read in the extant literature and how that applies to your research. You may be able to access this content by logging in via your Emerald profile. Universitiesindustry collaboration strategies: A micro-level perspective. In exploring extant literature, the study shows that the concept of knowledge gap emanated from the mass media domain and has two distinct pillars or pathways such as differentials in awareness. Research Policy, The debate also extends into the wider academic community, where no consensus exists. To save this word, you'll need to log in. Shared goals are needed to reach a common understanding of the desired output and the interpretation of results (Tsai and Ghoshal 1998). (2013). (2008) and relate them to literature on academic engagement. Firms indicated that different logics remained problematic for the development of useful interaction with universities, but that this disadvantage was outweighed by the benefits of the collaboration (Morandi 2013). Universityindustry linkage evolution: An empirical investigation of relational success factors. 2). Links and impacts: The influence of public research on industrial R D. Management Science, Tie strength improves absorptive capacity, as more interaction provides more opportunities to exchange knowledge. Experience with the collaboration partner has been found to mitigate problems relating to differences in goals, because it leads to more realistic expectations and better insight in the partners needs (Azevedo Ferreira and Rezende Ramos 2015; Steinmo 2015; Wallin et al. More attention for how firms manage research partnerships is therefore needed. Because industrial partners lack the time to dive into the data and feel unequipped to participate truly in the academic debate (McCabe et al. Frequent meetings and deliberation are key to recognize and solve differences (Morandi 2013; Plewa et al. Read books and articles on the topics that you like the most. Bloedon, R. V., & Stokes, D. R. (1994). Spontaneously sharing interesting knowledge that is not directly related to the specific project, experience and successful previous collaborations make partners feel that the other is genuinely interested in what is needed and improves insight in the partners needs (Al-Tabbaa and Ankrah 2016; Pinheiro et al. International Journal of Technology Management, (2010) found that experience and academic convergence reduces differences. 35(7), 975993. 23(1), 128157. 2002; Bjerregaard 2009; Sandberg et al.

The author attempts to conceptualize the terms of impairment to the phonological loop in a working memory. Training and workshops help to transfer tacit, complex knowledge and build skills (Azevedo Ferreira and Rezende Ramos 2015; Daghfous 2004). Second, we excluded papers that were not related to knowledge transfer. 2012). 0 1 a : currently or actually existing the most charming writer extant G. W. Johnson b : still existing : not destroyed or lost extant manuscripts 2 archaic : standing out or above Synonyms alive around existent existing living See all Synonyms & Antonyms in Thesaurus Example Sentences We propose that research into academic engagement can build on theory on knowledge transfer to fill this gap. Cultural differences and differences in goals were also identified by van Wijk et al. (2006). In spite of that, they are frequently mentioned as barrier, they are not well researched. The paper concludes with translating these insights into an analytical framework and research agenda. 3(4), 285302. Journal of Product Innovation Management, 0000188193 00000 n 35(1), 128152. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help DEste, P., & Perkmann, M. (2011). The relevance of technical and organizational uncertainties in relation to learning activities is unclear as well. Therefore, these do not fully reflect the trust related concerns we encountered in our analysis. Differences in goals are best managed by improved communication (Bjerregaard 2009; Plewa et al. One can conclude that an unknown number of written works too have likely not survived the ravages of time and are therefore lost. However, there is a need for more insight into the firms perspective on the involvement of students and Ph.D.s in research partnerships (Thune 2009), as most research discusses the academic perspective only. 41(155), 118. Simultaneously, the paper collates technical terms related to FinTech that appear repeatedly in each category and explains them. 2003). Keywords: A systematic review of the literature, The multi-level process of trust and learning in universityindustry innovation collaborations, Energizing collaborative industry-academia learning: a present case and future visions, Academic engagement with industry: the role of research quality and experience. There is room left for research into problem management during the initiation and collaboration phase. Grounded Theory and the Conundrum of Literature Review: Framework for The majority of the papers focuses on development and transfer of knowledge by the academic partner. His hypotheses is that in the case of radically new technologies knowledge is so different from existing knowledge that knowing how to organize the implementation of new technologies becomes more relevant. Consistent with the breadth of our research question, we adopt an inductive approach using techniques borrowed from grounded theory (Wolfswinkel et al., 2013) and review 282 works on DT culled from IS literature. European Journal of Innovation Management, Finally, we identified questions for future research based on inconsistencies in extant research and open questions we encountered during our analysis. This way managerial capabilities can be developed and academic work can be aligned with business challenges (Buganza et al. After this, we turn to theoretical insights about how knowledge differences and characteristics influence the effectiveness of knowledge exchange and absorptive capacity. Ghauri, P., & Rosendo-Rios, V. (2016). 1998). Drawing up project plans that include milestones and the use of management tools can improve trust in the willingness of the academic to take into account industrial needs. Additionally, we looked for research that confirmed the relevance of the factors we identified for academic engagement. In that section we provide an overview of theoretical perspectives and activities that have been described in previous research. To align goals, projects often start with a project plan, which allocates tasks and responsibilities and milestones in detail (Barnes et al. Wang, Y., & Lu, L. (2007). https://www.definitions.net/definition/extant+literature. 13(4), 287299. Up till now, the field is still behind in the development of theoretical perspectives. There seems to be a need for future research to improve our understanding of how cultural differences are managed. 2002; Gertner et al. Management Science, Palo Alto: Stanford University Press. Time orientation relates to differences in what is considered an acceptable period to reach goals, punctuality in meeting deadlines and the continuity of personnel (Barnes et al. 2015; Ulhi et al. Besides our aim to develop a theoretical perspective to study academic engagement our focus on knowledge transfer adds to previous reviews on academic engagement. 2015). While Muscio and Pozzali (2013) and Morandi (2013) found that more experience in interaction with firms does not change the perception of cognitive distance. A systematic review of literature consisting of 130 studies (social science research network [SSRN]-29 papers, Scopus-81, other sources-20) on FinTech is carried out in this thematic paper. 2013b). Research Policy, This allows us to emphasize social interactions, managerial aspects and concrete activities that enhance knowledge transfer. 2013b). Journal of Management Studies, In the remainder of this paper we present the stylised model and the implications of our analysis for future research and management. European Management Journal, Second, we identified the information that related to knowledge transfer and included this in our table. 2011; Hadjimanolis 2006; McCabe et al. government site. Ghauri and Rosendo-Rios (2016) found that especially market and time orientation affect collaboration success. Extant literature can be divided into extant original manuscripts, copies of original manuscripts, quotations and paraphrases of passages of non-extant texts contained in other works, translations of non-extant texts into other languages, or, more recently, photocopies or digital copies of texts. Cohen, W. M. (2002). 31(3), 387408. Resultantly, academic reputation and previous personal ties are important drivers for establishing collaborations (Pinheiro et al. First, we prepared a table which summarized the research questions and answers. (2013). [George] Lucas' brain teemed with plots and characters, exotic creatures, worlds to be spun out of the words and sketches in his notebooks. While trust is used to express the reliability of a partner (Hansen 1999). 2016). Collaboration experience with the specific partner also increases trust in that the partner will handle sensitive information carefully. Spirituality in the workplace: a systematic review - Emerald 9(4), 259280. We aim to realize generalization and accumulation of knowledge and to identify issues which are inconclusive or have been ignored in the extant literature and provide practices that facilitate the management of academic engagement in practice.

The abstraction level we use is such that it can be translated into managerial implications. 0000150299 00000 n British Journal of Management, xref The second line of research, applicability of knowledge, is highly dependent on goal similarity of the partners. Plewa, C., Korff, N., Johnson, C., Macpherson, G., Baaken, T., & Rampersad, G. C. (2013b). Drawing up project plans and the use of management tools can help to make differences in goals visible over the course of the project. In our view, an increased understanding of when informal or formal management mechanisms are used is needed. Mowery, D. C., & Shane, S. (2002). A more structured approach is required which distinguishes between the effects of single attributes of cultural differences and their effect on collaboration success and knowledge transfer. STANDS4 LLC, 2023. (1999). Close interaction is also the most important way for researchers to identify interesting questions for future research (Perkmann and Walsh 2007; Ulhi et al. Industry and academia in convergence: Micro-institutional dimensions of R&D collaboration. The management of industryuniversity joint research projects: How do partners coordinate and control R&D activities? This discrepancy is partly explained by McCabe et al. Additionally, trust is reflected in the absence of formal control mechanisms. 2015; Steinmo 2015; Wallin et al. International Journal of Innovation and Technology Management, This enables him to translate results which facilitate application and implementation (Gertner et al. Collaboration for innovation: A case study on how social capital mitigates collaborative challenges in universityindustry research alliances. The extent to which cultural differences affect academic engagement is unclear, even as the role of experience to reduce this barrier. The site is secure. 45(4), 830853. 2023 Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Making innovative use of academic knowledge to enhance corporate technology innovation impact. On the one hand, it has been shown that increasing academic convergence between companies and industry reduce the differences (Bjerregaard 2010). We aim to contribute to the theoretical development in the field of academic engagement and propose that knowledge transfer provides a valuable perspective. The main purpose of a review article is to critically analyse the extant literature in a given research area, theme or discipline, identifying relevant theories, key constructs, empirical methods, contexts, and remaining research gaps in order to set a future research agenda based on those gaps. Research Technology Management, 2015). 0000148956 00000 n (2015). Effective universityindustry interaction: A multi-case evaluation of collaborative R&D projects. 2014). From the Cambridge English Corpus Generalizations from the extant literature about parental influences are based mainly on studies of parents and children where assessments are concurrent. 1087 0 obj <>stream Johnson and Johnston (2004) explored how the knowledge creation cycle affects knowledge transfer in academic engagement. Which shows that tacit knowledge is transferred in four steps; (1) through creating shared experiences (socialization), after which knowledge is (2) externalized, (3) recombined and (4) internalized. We also identified the practices that could help to overcome those barriers. 30(3), 509532. (2004). Technovation, 3). They showed that technological relatedness and technological capability (which increases absorptive capacity) were the most important facilitators of knowledge transfer in UI collaborations. (2008) and literature that discussed such differences was therefore included. For instance, the outplacement of personnel from the firm, secondment and employment of graduates (Galan-Muros and Plewa 2016; Gertner et al. The paper reports that FinTech promises huge potential for further study by various stakeholders in the FinTech industry from academia to practitioners to regulators. 2013a; Schartinger et al.

Reduced ambiguity in return improves absorptive capacity and the understanding of the goals and needs of the partner. 2008). Moreover, 11 studies used extant literature and 1 study extracted data from a focus group discussion. This requires bidirectional knowledge sharing to identify relevant problems, share and develop new insights, and the transfer and implementation of knowledge or technology. Our framework and the factors found by van Wijk et al. In the following part we will discuss the findings from the literature we reviewed. Van Wijk et al. This is a methodological paper detailing the authors' engagement in the debate surrounding the role of the literature in a grounded theory study. 1062 0 obj <> endobj Organizational Dynamics, Send us feedback about these examples. 2015). 31(3), 303328. If partners mainly interact through periodical meetings instead of personnel exchange the identification of suitable recipients within the firm, who have the right knowledge background is essential.
