Tangible and Intangible Assets in a Science Park

Most Science Parks nowadays provide land, office space, funding and some basic services. The better ones also offer an extensive network of international business connections, which enables their Science Park tenants to beat their competitor to market. Many Science Parks offer little more than a place to set up shop. These organisations will hardly be able to deliver superior value to start-ups and their investors. Research done by EU on Academic spin-offs and Zernike (See Figure 1 and 2) showed some\ninterested developments in the European Science Parks and their tenants. Also research done by Morten Hansen, Henry W. Chesbrough, Nitin Nohria and Donald N. Sull from Harvard Business School showed interesting cases about networked incubators.
