(encouraging) spin-outs Explanation: pour rajouter à la "confusion" :-) A second definition of a spin-out is a firm formed when an employee or group of employees leaves an existing entity to form an independent start-up firm. The prior employer can be a firm, a university, or another organization. Spin-outs typically operate at arm's length from the previous organizations and have independent sources of financing, products, services, customers, and other assets. In some cases, the spin-out may license technology from the parent or supply the parent with products or services; conversely, they may become competitors. Such spin-outs are important sources of technological diffusion in high technology industries -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2014-01-26 18:52:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_french/education_pedago...

Pour l'auteur, l'essaimage n'est en fait qu'une partie du spin-off anglo-saxon. http://web.hec.ca/airepme/images/File/1998/Pirnay.pdf Reference: http://www.culture.fr/franceterme/result?francetermeSearchTe... |
