1. Yuka Watanabe, Megumi Takata, Preliminary Exploration of the Impact of Entrepreneurship Education on Alumni Behavior: Interviews with QREC Alumni Entrepreneurs, 1st INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION IN ASIA, 2023.12, This presentation outlines a preliminary research endeavor focused on unraveling the impact of QREC's Entrepreneurship Education (EE) on the behavior of its alumni. The study aims to discern general trends and typologies in the effects of QREC's EE through an exploration of case studies involving 10 QREC alumni. Leveraging the Intention model (Shapero 1982; Krueger and Brazeal 1994; Krueger 2000), as a precedent research framework, this study seeks to shed light on the factors influencing alumni behavior in the context of EE. The findings from this preliminary research not only aim to identify general trends and typologies but also pave the way for future research themes.
The following factors have emerged as potentially playing an important role in EE. The first factor is that proactive "personal desirability" emerges as a fundamental driving force that marks the entrepreneurial journey. The second factor is that rewriting "perceived social norms" is likely to be a pivotal element in EE. Third, the acquisition of "personal desirability," "perceived social norms," "perceived self-efficacy," and "perceived collective efficacy" potentially leads to the acquisition of "perceived desirability," "perceived feasibility," and "PERCEPTION of OPPORTUNITY" at one's own effort and at one's own timing. Finally, a significant portion of the 10 cases showed similarities in "propensity to act." It may be important to have an "entrepreneur-specific" propensity to act in order to be able to gain INTENTIONS..
2. Toshihiko Matsuhashi, Megumi Takata, Kosuke Kato, Terumasa Matsuyuki, Management of a technology transfer organization that fosters intrinsic motivation, ISPIM Innovation Conference, 2023, 2023.06, This study aims to elucidate the organizational management that enables technology transfer professionals, who are actively engaged in the commercialization of university-developed technologies, to demonstrate their capabilities. It presents a novel example of organizational management that fosters intrinsic motivation at the Technology Licensing Organization of the University of Tokyo (Todai TLO). A qualitative analysis was conducted through semi-structured interviews with seven people, including the president of the Todai TLO, using the self-determination theory and the organismic integration theory as a research framework over approximately 2 months. This paper discusses the importance of a culture of collaboration in generating intrinsic motivation, the perspective of incorporating extrinsic motivation, which is a monetary reward, while generating intrinsic motivation, and the importance of Organization-Based Self-Esteem (OBSE). Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation is internally coordinated, generates OBSE within the organization, and significantly enhances organizational performance..

5. M. Takata, K. Nakagawa, M. Yoshida, T. Matsuyuki, T. Matsuhashi, K. Kato, Nursing entrepreneurship: A conceptual study of a new focus for technology transfer professionals, ISPIM Innovation Conference, 2018.06, This study proposes a new focus for technology transfer professionals who enable university technology commercialization. The role of universities in realizing innovation has grown increasingly important. However, technological commercialization stemming from universities is quite difficult because of different skills and functions needed in during the stages between technological invention and business realization. To address such situations, this study proposes a new responsibility for technology transfer professionals working between the academic inventor and surrogate entrepreneur, namely that of a nursing entrepreneur. We identify the key behaviours and personal characteristics of a nursing entrepreneur and use effectuation theory to identify similarities in the behavioural patterns of this role and those of expert entrepreneurs. Our perspective sheds light on the hidden entrepreneurial role of technology transfer professional. To accelerate innovation out of universities, we recommend that such skills should be developed by education and training, and that people with those skills should be employed and promoted..
6. K. Nakagawa, M. Takata, K. Kato, T. Matsuyuki, T. Matsuhashi, University-Industry collaborative entrepreneurship education program as a trading zone: Case of Osaka University, UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY COLLABORATIONS AND ACADEMIC ENTREPRENEURSHIP: EAST MEETS WEST, 2017.06, University-industry collaborative education is a potential solution for entrepreneurship training. It can give participants both sophisticated theory from university and experiential know-hows from industry, and both contribute to successful entrepreneur activities. This paper proposes the concept of trading zone can be considered as potential framework for capturing this education method. That’s to say, the exchange of knowledge between students and practitioners is the essential learning experience of university-industry collaborative education. Furthermore, this study proposes heterogeneity between students and practitioners makes that exchange more meaningful, shared language provided by program staffs make exchange efficient, and the temporality and the extraordinariness of the program accelerate that exchange. While external validity should be checked in the future study, this study gives one evidence for those our propositions, from the qualitative and quantitative analysis of Osaka University case..
7. M. Takata, K. Hasegawa, A. Nagata, Potential for Utilization of Stokes’ Quadrant as a Policy Analysis Tool, ISPIM Innovation Forum, 2017.03, Regarding researchers affiliated with Kyushu University, data on the obtainment of grants/funds, and data on research publications published in Japanese, research publications published in English and patent applications were connected from 2005 to 2013. Departments with distinguished academic achievements and highly motivated university-industry collaboration activities were selected. Among the professors and associate professors enrolled during the above period, 26 persons who could be connected with research publications and patent data were targeted for this analysis. An attempt was made to understand researchers' means for obtaining grants/funds in chronological order and conduct analysis by using Stokes' quadrant. From the viewpoint of secular change, it was found that some researchers do not stay in one quadrant but move around, shifting back and forth between multiple quadrants. Stokes' quadrant is useful as a framework for analyzing the change in the portfolio of research grants/funds..
