Spin-off companies
Notice: the definition of a spin-off may be different for each institution. Sometimes limited to companies initiated around a technology licensed by the institution, the definition may be wider and include also companies initiated by students after graduation. For this reason, before any comparison, a clarification must be made.
Please note that the Swiss association of technology transfer professionals swiTT publishes each year statistics on common definitions.
