 What does AcademicTech success look like?Yvonne Campfens No jqwf7, OSF Preprints from Center for Open Science Abstract: ‘What does AcademicTech success look like?’ This is the topic of my continued market research on innovation in research workflows and scholarly communication. Through a survey and interviews conducted in the summer of 2019, I now have a much better picture of what success looks like. My hypotheses have developed into a version 1.0 model for the success of AcademicTech startups. My model also helps understand where an individual AcademicTech startup is located on their roadmap to success. Don’t be fooled by a model that seems to tell you that the path to success is all laid out and logical, and that it is just hard work. Embedded in the model is how moderators of success, metrics, and even the notion of success itself may change when a startup develops and matures. It is an iterative route, not a linear one. While the startup team has to stay focused and work systematically, their agility, which enables them to maximize chances, is crucial. In order to be successful, they have to be able to manage this dual mindset. Do I now have a model that enables me conclude which AcademicTech startups in my sample of over 100 are most successful? I don't think so. It simply depends. First and foremost, success depends on how founders define their ambitions, expectations, and goals in (at least) two distinct dimensions relevant to AcademicTech startups: business and research/knowledge impact.
