1 Universities and the Innovation Ecosystem Universities do not get enough credit for the fact that as players in our innovation ecosystem, they re willing to gamble on cash-strapped startups. At the end of the day, who else is offering to pick up the tab? Warts and all, universities remain willing to pay patent costs to support expensive and increasingly sophisticated IP strategies for startups who will likely never be able to pay them back. - Melba Kurman, Triple Helix Blog, 25 Feb 2011

13 Economic Significance The economic significance of the research university goes far beyond its role of education and training. For several decades, university research has increasingly formed the foundation of significant technological advancements. These technologies enter the marketplace through research collaborations with industry, licenses, and to an increasing extent, university-driven efforts to turn new ideas into start-up companies. Jan Crispin, Senior Research Economist. The Economic Impact of Startup Companies and Invention Licensees Originating from Research at the University of Utah. Bureau of Economic and Business Research, 2011.
