Academic spin‐offs (ASOs), a distinct form of hybrid venture, operate at the intersection of economic (business) and non‐economic (academic) logics. Although traditional literature often portrays these logics as inherently conflicting, emphasizing the trade‐offs ASOs must manage, recent empirical findings challenge this view, suggesting that integrating academic and business logics can be beneficial. This paper presents a systematic review of the ASO literature, leveraging the concept of duality to explore the dynamic interplay between academic and business logics. The duality perspective underscores the importance of considering both complementarities and oppositions between seemingly incompatible logics. By synthesizing existing empirical findings, we propose a framework that clarifies how the oppositions and complementarities between academic and business logics influence ASOs’ academic and business outcomes. Our framework highlights the need for more nuanced, dynamic and multilevel approaches in studying ASOs, offering future research directions that embrace the duality perspective. This integrative view aims to inspire further investigation into hybrid ventures, illustrating how economic and non‐economic logics can jointly foster both non‐economic and economic outcomes.

在学术衍生产品中拥抱二元性：系统综述和未来研究议程


学术衍生公司 （ASO） 是混合企业的一种独特形式，在经济（商业）和非经济（学术）逻辑的交叉点上运作。尽管传统文献经常将这些逻辑描绘成本质上相互冲突的，强调 ASO 必须管理的权衡，但最近的实证研究结果挑战了这一观点，表明整合学术和商业逻辑可能是有益的。本文对 ASO 文献进行了系统回顾，利用二元性的概念来探索学术和商业逻辑之间的动态相互作用。二元性观点强调了考虑看似不相容的逻辑之间的互补性和对立性的重要性。通过综合现有的实证发现，我们提出了一个框架，阐明学术和商业逻辑之间的对立和互补如何影响 ASO 的学术和商业成果。我们的框架强调了在研究 ASO 时需要更细致、动态和多层次的方法，提供了采用二元性视角的未来研究方向。这种综合观点旨在激发对混合企业的进一步研究，说明经济和非经济逻辑如何共同促进非经济和非经济结果。
