In September we are developing the 3° Symposium of University Entrepreneurship, and this year the topic is: Interaction between Universities and Enterprise.
Hi Julian,
yes. Here in the University of Flensburg we do have several cluster. As we have a focus on Energy and Environmental Management the clusters are related e.g. for Wind and BioGas. Currently I am starting a Sustainable Innovation and Entrepreneurship Programm for the Masterclass of Developing Countries as a Courseware to invite SME´s to move their ideas to a programm called Horizon 2020 which was set up from the European Union (budget 70 Bill. €).

There is a conference on this topic coming up, organized by European Commission and KTH in Stockholm (March 2014). One of the key themes is the development of successful knowledge clusters and innovation ecosystems:

You also may want to look at our JPIM 2008 article, in which we developed a set of evidence-based design principles for creating university spin-offs. One of these principles is about crafting a collaborative network of investors, managers, and advisors around the university's entrepreneurship center. In the article we provide illustrations of how this type of network can be created and sustained:

Please note the design principles in our paper were later replicated in several other studies, for example published in AMLE:
