2 Welcome
We are delighted to welcome you to the Darden and Cambridge Judge
Entrepreneurship and Innovation Research Conference.
This year is special as it represents several milestones for the
conference’s evolution over the years:
• It is the ffth consecutive year of the conference, so we are pleased
to see this efort stand the test of time,
• It is the second consecutive year of the partnership between
Darden and Cambridge Judge, and
• It is the frst time that this conference will cross the Atlantic Ocean
and acquire a global reach!
This year’s programme continues to build on the founding
commitment towards establishing a conference that focuses on the
cross-disciplined challenges of Entrepreneurship and Innovation,
as opposed to any one specifc traditional academic discipline. This
year’s talks deliver on this objective; we have research presenters and
discussants from the felds of Strategy, Marketing, Organisational
Behaviour, Operations, Economics, and Finance. Thankfully, all these
contributors approach the challenges of Entrepreneurship and
Innovation from diferent angles, and they are the true value creators
for this conference.
Finally, as this is the frst time the conference will be hosted outside
of North America, and at one of the major Entrepreneurship hubs
globally, we have taken the opportunity to assemble our keynote
speaker and panel discussants from the Cambridge Ecosystem.
They will provide us with additional insight into the Innovation
and Entrepreneurship eforts that take place in and around the
Cambridge area.
As the conference co-hosts, we would like to sincerely thank you for
taking the time to be a part of this ongoing dialogue. We hope you
enjoy the conference!

11 Author and Discussant Biographies
Kevin J. Boudreau
Assistant Professor, Strategy, London Business School
Kevin J. Boudreau is an assistant professor in the Strategy &
Entrepreneurship department at London Business School. He is
a strategy researcher and applied microeconomist specialized in
questions of competition, organization and innovation, specializing
in platform design. He develops and tests ideas in both large-sample
econometric studies as well as feld experiments. His work has
addressed a range of approaches to orchestrating value-creation
on platforms—from multi-sided markets, to competitive contests,
crowdsourcing and collaborative team arrangements. Thus, his work
largely relates to high technology, science, and digital platforms. By
deeply studying underlying micro-mechanisms, the goal of his work
is to better understand the forces shaping productivity, competitive
advantage and optimal design of business and innovation models. He
received his PhD from MIT in Behavioral and Policy Sciences and has
degrees in Economics and Engineering.
Francesco Castellaneta
Assistant Professor, Catolica Lisbon School of Business and Economics
He has a PhD in Management and a MSc in Management of Public
Administration, both from Bocconi University (Milan, Italy). Assistant
Professor at Catolica-Lisbon, he teaches ‘Entrepreneurship and
Business Planning, ‘Private Equity’and ‘Business Strategy’ in the MSc
and Executive Courses. Using a proprietary database of 7,268 buyouts
realized by 256 private equity frms in 81 countries, between 1973 and
2008, he explores three diferent issues. First, he explores how Private
Equity frms learn (or don’t learn) to cope with the strains posed by
activity load, that is by parallel investments. Second, he studies the
mechanisms through which Private Equity frms’ experience enhances
buyouts’ performance. By using quasi-natural experiments in the US
context, he studies whether Private Equity frms’ experience afects
buyouts performance mainly through selection or value addition.
Third, he analyzes the role of institutions in the private equity industry.
By using quasi-natural experiments in the US context, he analyzes the
impact of: (a) trade secret law protection on buyouts performance; (b)
inevitable disclosure doctrine on the geography of venture capital. He
occasionally consults investors in Private Equity and Venture Capital
funds, like banks, insurances, family ofces and pension funds.

following the internal process of knowledge transformation. He
also examines how frms adapt to changing environments through
a combination of internal (in-house knowledge development)
and external (alliances, licensing, acquisitions, etc…) activities. He
investigates the role of certain individuals within frms as the drivers
of frm-level innovation. To identify these individuals, Kostas tracks
knowledge networks emerging through individual collaboration
within frms, seeking to identify individuals and network structures
that are driving a number of meaningful frm-level innovation-related
outcomes.

Healx3
Two-third of known diseases are still uncured and afect around
45% of the UK population. Unfortunately, these patients have a
75% probability of ultimately dying from their chronic illness. This
enormous therapeutic unmet need is partially due to the high failure
rate of therapies in development. Moreover, the lack of transparency
around shelved biopharmaceutical assets and the lack of resources
allocated to subsequently maximise their therapeutic value strongly
hinders innovation in this sector. This results in the accumulation of
assets with therapeutic potential on company benches, which don’t
cure patients or generate revenue.
Healx3 is a tech-based enterprise specialised in maximising
therapeutic potential of shelved assets. By providing a systematic
approach to the management, evaluation and transfer of shelved
assets, we enable companies to generate new revenue streams
and maximise value of their internal assets. Healx3 acts as a broker
between multiple stakeholders and is developing a software-based
technology platform to exchange and promote shelved therapeutics.
By these activities, Healx3 helps deliver the next generation of
therapeutics to patients in need.

2 Welcome
We are delighted to welcome you to the Darden and Cambridge Judge
Entrepreneurship and Innovation Research Conference.
This year is special as it represents several milestones for the
conference’s evolution over the years:
• It is the ffth consecutive year of the conference, so we are pleased
to see this efort stand the test of time,
• It is the second consecutive year of the partnership between
Darden and Cambridge Judge, and
• It is the frst time that this conference will cross the Atlantic Ocean
and acquire a global reach!
This year’s programme continues to build on the founding
commitment towards establishing a conference that focuses on the
cross-disciplined challenges of Entrepreneurship and Innovation,
as opposed to any one specifc traditional academic discipline. This
year’s talks deliver on this objective; we have research presenters and
discussants from the felds of Strategy, Marketing, Organisational
Behaviour, Operations, Economics, and Finance. Thankfully, all these
contributors approach the challenges of Entrepreneurship and
Innovation from diferent angles, and they are the true value creators
for this conference.
Finally, as this is the frst time the conference will be hosted outside
of North America, and at one of the major Entrepreneurship hubs
globally, we have taken the opportunity to assemble our keynote
speaker and panel discussants from the Cambridge Ecosystem.
They will provide us with additional insight into the Innovation
and Entrepreneurship eforts that take place in and around the
Cambridge area.
As the conference co-hosts, we would like to sincerely thank you for
taking the time to be a part of this ongoing dialogue. We hope you
enjoy the conference!

Kevin J. Boudreau
Assistant Professor, Strategy, London Business School
Kevin J. Boudreau is an assistant professor in the Strategy &
Entrepreneurship department at London Business School. He is
a strategy researcher and applied microeconomist specialized in
questions of competition, organization and innovation, specializing
in platform design. He develops and tests ideas in both large-sample
econometric studies as well as feld experiments. His work has
addressed a range of approaches to orchestrating value-creation
on platforms—from multi-sided markets, to competitive contests,
crowdsourcing and collaborative team arrangements. Thus, his work
largely relates to high technology, science, and digital platforms. By
deeply studying underlying micro-mechanisms, the goal of his work
is to better understand the forces shaping productivity, competitive
advantage and optimal design of business and innovation models. He
received his PhD from MIT in Behavioral and Policy Sciences and has
degrees in Economics and Engineering.
Francesco Castellaneta
Assistant Professor, Catolica Lisbon School of Business and Economics
He has a PhD in Management and a MSc in Management of Public
Administration, both from Bocconi University (Milan, Italy). Assistant
Professor at Catolica-Lisbon, he teaches ‘Entrepreneurship and
Business Planning, ‘Private Equity’and ‘Business Strategy’ in the MSc
and Executive Courses. Using a proprietary database of 7,268 buyouts
realized by 256 private equity frms in 81 countries, between 1973 and
2008, he explores three diferent issues. First, he explores how Private
Equity frms learn (or don’t learn) to cope with the strains posed by
activity load, that is by parallel investments. Second, he studies the
mechanisms through which Private Equity frms’ experience enhances
buyouts’ performance. By using quasi-natural experiments in the US
context, he studies whether Private Equity frms’ experience afects
buyouts performance mainly through selection or value addition.
Third, he analyzes the role of institutions in the private equity industry.
By using quasi-natural experiments in the US context, he analyzes the
impact of: (a) trade secret law protection on buyouts performance; (b)
inevitable disclosure doctrine on the geography of venture capital. He
occasionally consults investors in Private Equity and Venture Capital
funds, like banks, insurances, family ofces and pension funds.

of frm-level innovation. To identify these individuals, Kostas tracks
knowledge networks emerging through individual collaboration
within frms, seeking to identify individuals and network structures
that are driving a number of meaningful frm-level innovation-related
outcomes.

Healx3
Two-third of known diseases are still uncured and afect around
45% of the UK population. Unfortunately, these patients have a
75% probability of ultimately dying from their chronic illness. This
enormous therapeutic unmet need is partially due to the high failure
rate of therapies in development. Moreover, the lack of transparency
around shelved biopharmaceutical assets and the lack of resources
allocated to subsequently maximise their therapeutic value strongly
hinders innovation in this sector. This results in the accumulation of
assets with therapeutic potential on company benches, which don’t
cure patients or generate revenue.
Healx3 is a tech-based enterprise specialised in maximising
therapeutic potential of shelved assets. By providing a systematic
approach to the management, evaluation and transfer of shelved
assets, we enable companies to generate new revenue streams
and maximise value of their internal assets. Healx3 acts as a broker
between multiple stakeholders and is developing a software-based
technology platform to exchange and promote shelved therapeutics.
By these activities, Healx3 helps deliver the next generation of
therapeutics to patients in need.
