- Abstract
Contained in this document are papers presented at the Symposium on Technical Entrepreneurship at Purdue University by researchers who were then or had previously been engaged in research in the area. Because formal research in this area was in its infancy, there was a particular need to afford investigators in the field opportunities to compare findings and to discuss possible directions for future research. Titles of the twelve papers presented are: (1) Factors Influencing the Rate of Formation of Technical Companies, (2) The Technical Entrepreneurship Process in Austin, Texas, (3) Comparative Profiles-Entrepreneurs Versus the Hired Executive: San Francisco Peninsula Semiconductor Industry, (4) The Process of Technical Company Formation in a Local Area, (5) Research Parks and Regional Development, (6) Incubator Organizations and Technical Entrepreneurship, (7) Influences Upon Performance of New Technical Enterprises, (8) The Role of Marketing in Technical Entrepreneurship, (9) Role of the Financial Community in the Formation, Growth and Effectiveness of Technical Companies: The Attitude of Commercial Loan Officers, (10) Two Approaches to University Stimulation of Entrepreneurships, (11) Graduate Student Views of Entrepreneurship and Courses on Entrepreneurship, and (12) A Preliminary Study of the Personal Values of High Technology Entrepreneurs.
