  5. How to provide better support to (potential) global startups: the design, validation and implementation of a scheme for the stimulation and creation of global university start-ups How can a region support a university and/or companies to reach their global potential? How do our regions do this? What can we learn from each other? What does an ideal regional support structure look like? Regional level How do our universities support spin-off companies and particularly global startup companies? How can we improve this? What do we need and what could be an ideal structure? What instruments are available to support them better? What needs to be developed? University level About the project What is a global start-up? What are the needs of global startup companies? How do they fulfill their needs presently? Venture level

  6. Regional level How can a region support a university and/or companies to reach their global potential?

  7. University level How do our universities support spin-off companies and particularly global startup companies? Global start-up support structures TTO Benchmarking Regional infrastructure How to implement the optimal support structure? Plan for global start-up support Gap analysis: existing versus needed support / best practices Mobilisation plan How to complete the existing support functions Inventory of best support initiatives (in/)outside Europe Global start-up needs (demand side) Literature review Case studies What kind of support is needed?
