2. 1. Walking the Plank of the Entrepreneurial University : The little spin-out that could?

   Author : Nina Fowler; David Sköld; Marcus Lindahl; Malin Brännback; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : University spinouts; research; academic capitalism; entrepreneurship; commercialisation; social forces; Engineering Science with specialization in industrial engineering and management; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot industriell teknik;

   Abstract : Creating spinout companies (USOs) from university research is one focus of innovation policy. The phenomenon features in two main fields of enquiry: academic entrepreneurship studies, and literature on academic capitalism and the entrepreneurial university. READ MORE

4. 2. Cluster Dynamics and Industrial Policy in Peripheral Regions : a study of cluster formation as a local development process

   Author : Cali Nuur; Staffan Laestadius; David Jacobson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Peripheral regions; Industrial policy; regional development policy; cluster dynamics; call centress; Sweden; Hälsingland; Landsortsregioner; Industriell politik; Regional utvecklingspolitik; Klusterdynamik; Call centers; Sverige; Hälsingland; Industrial organisation; administration and economics; Industriell organisation; administration och ekonomi;

   Abstract : The rapid growth of the global economy in the last two decades has created a new economic reality in many municipalities in peripheral regions of Sweden. Having earlier relied on traditional industry as the source of employment, today municipalities in peripheral regions are struggling to survive in a completely changed economic landscape, with new conditions for development.

7. 5. Glycoside hydrolases from Rhodothermus marinus Modular organisation and structure-function relationships

   Author : Maher Abou-Hachem; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; calcium-binding; modular; endoglucanase; thermostable; CBM; xylanase; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

   Abstract : The thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus produces several thermostable glycoside hydrolases. The studies presented in this thesis were performed on two enzymes, belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 and 12, produced by this microorganism. The family 10 xylanase, Xyn10A, is modular in architecture consisting of five domains or modules. READ MORE
