Description:

Thousands of businesses have 'spun-out' from universities - so is this an opportunity for further growth?

The model has seen great success in the US, leading to booming commercial ventures such as Dropbox, iRobot, and Boston Dynamics.

And now the UK government has plans for further investment in spin-outs from Oxford and Cambridge.

But what evidence exists that this approach can be as effective in other parts of the world? And as global economies strive for growth, will there be competition for talent and investment?
