Rafael Cáceres Carrasco María Teresa Aceytuno Administración y Contabilidad off firm university University spin industry relations The objective of this paper is to analyze the incubation strategies developed in the universities of Andalusia, a relatively low-income region of Spain, to promote the creation of university spin-offs. These strategies are also compared to the incubation models noted in the literature. The performance of the university spin-offs created and its relation to the incubation strategies developed by the university are also analysed. The analysis is based on data from a survey of nine public universities that carry out strategies for the promotion of university spin-offs. The result of the analysis shows that university spin-off incubation strategies in Andalusia present specific char-acteristics not covered by certain models that are well-known in the literature on innovation. Then, a new stage in the process of the university spin-off incubation is proposed. We consider it to be a pre-strategic stage to the academic spin-off incubation strategies. The analysis also finds certain environmental factors associated to those spin-offs promoted by Andalusian universities that achieve the highest level of performance. This result suggests that previous to making any decision involving investment into developing incubation strategies, universities should gaugewhether they have sufficient resources and the possibilities of connecting with a Technology Park. 2015 artículo científico 1131-6837 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=274341783005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2743 Cuadernos de Gestión application/pdf Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea Cuadernos de Gestión (España) Num.2 Vol.15
