The paper aims to provide an overview of the phenomenon of university spin-offs in Italy.Academics spin-offs constitute one of the ways in which knowledge developed in universitiesand public research institutions transfer into the productive sector. Differently from othermodes of technology transfer they are characterized by the direct involvement of researchersand the support of the parent institution. The possibility for university and research institutionsto authorize spin-offs was introduced in Italy in 1999. Up to 2012 nearly 750 spin-offs wereset up in Italy. They registered a high survival rate and, overall, a good financial performance.However, the spin- offs that have shown significant growth rates are just a few. Very often thespin-off is used to facilitate the supply of advanced services developed within the universityrather than developing new products and services. The paper also analyse the ownership structureof spin-offs and other factors affecting their growth performance.
