| dc.description.abstract | The study explored a model of an entrepreneurial university that would be adopted by countries in least developed economies, Malawi in particular. The study provides a critical insight on the multi-dimensional view of an entrepreneurial university from the context of universities in least developed countries in Africa. The identified transforming elements include; the committed university leadership, an integrated entrepreneurial culture in teaching and research missions, faculty motivation, supportive financial strategy, impact assessment of entrepreneurial university activities and internal and external collaborations. The study used a multi case studies holistic approach where a structured questionnaire was used to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. The study recommends in the short term the consultancies and research contracts with focus on patent licensing, start-ups and spin-offs in the longer term. | en_US |
