Description
Masoumeh Jaberi, Seyed Mohammad Javad Sobhani, and Omid Jamshidi study how farm universities in Iran turn research into businesses. Their 2026 paper asks whether working with industry lifts academic entrepreneurship, and whether university incubators carry part of that effect.
The team surveyed one hundred twenty-seven technology startups tied to three agricultural universities. Two analysis styles, one built on structural equations and one on neural networks, agreed: industry ties raised startup activity, and incubator work both passed the effect along and added its own push. Industry ties were the strongest single predictor. The authors urge curriculum reform, better innovation facilities, and deeper private-sector links.
