摘要:Instead of performing traditional roles and responsibilities, academicians are encouraged to be involved in commercialisation activities. The commercialisation of university research findings contribute to income generation and introduce knowledge, product, or services innovation to the current markets. However, the number of commercialisations among academicians is still limited. Due to this issue, the objective of this study is to identify the types of barrier leading to difficulties for academicians to commercialise their research findings. A study of 450 Malaysian public university academicians in the Science and Engineering fields indicated that all barriers discussed in this study received a high level of acceptance. The result indicated that commitment and time barriers were the most crucial barriers, followed by orientation, experience and skills, financial support and incentives. The result will acknowledge the stakeholders for preparing them to avoid any difficulties while moving their idea into the commercialisation stage.
