Abstract

This chapter addresses the role of university campuses as potentializer of the impact of entrepreneurship on regional entrepreneurship ecosystem. The authors define the role and structure of entrepreneurial micro-ecosystems at a university level based on the body of knowledge focused on entrepreneurial and university ecosystems. Based on a specific case of Tecnológico de Monterrey in Querétaro, Mexico, authors construct a three-layer framework for a better understanding of the entrepreneurial micro-ecosystems and its internal and external interactions. Specifically, authors argue that the entrepreneurial micro-ecosystems are endemic to university campuses, and evolve at any type of entrepreneurship-focused university. On the other hand, these micro-ecosystems are scarcely recognized and managed. The authors believe that when they are accounted for and fostered, they generate an exponential effect both for entrepreneurs at the campus as well as for the regional entrepreneurial ecosystem and development.
