Abstract

The article presents the results of a bibliometric analysis of foreign literature (858 scientific papers) on academic entrepreneurship published in the SCOPUS scientometric database in 1970-2022. The dynamic and structural analysis of publications showed the growing relevance of the international scientific community to the development of academic entrepreneurship. The clustering of scientific research by means of VOSwiever.com allowed us to identify 5 clusters: 1) purpose, role, impact of academic entrepreneurship on innovation, higher education, economic development and competitiveness of the country (region); 2) academic entrepreneurs and development of the academic entrepreneurship ecosystem; 3) interaction (links) between universities and industry, organization of technology transfer; 4) patent activity of universities; 5) academic spin-offs and formation of entrepreneurial universities. The trends in scientific research are identified based on a substantive analysis of the 15 most cited scientific publications. Proposals on the appropriate directions of research on academic entrepreneurship in Ukraine are presented
