本研究的最终价值在于帮助我们理解大学毕业生创业的经济影响。我们知道，一些大学通过其核心教育、研发和其他溢出效应，在许多经济体中发挥着重要作用。然而，为了通过创业来支持经济增长，大学必须创造一种文化和项目，使学生能够广泛获得创业。虽然麻省理工学院在培养成功企业家方面的领导力已经很明显，但这项研究-有史以来对企业家校友进行的最大规模的调查之一-量化了麻省理工学院支持公司初创企业的创业生态系统的重大影响。此外，虽然麻省理工学院在其提供的课程和其创业的历史文化方面更加独特和不寻常，但麻省理工学院提供了一个基准，其他机构可以通过该基准来衡量其校友企业家的经济影响。该报告还提供了许多项目和实践的例子，这些项目和实践可能会被其他寻求加强创业发展的大学所采用，并根据需要进行完整或修改。附录列出了对校友企业家进行调查的几所大学。
The ultimate value of this study is to help us understand the economic impact of the entrepreneurial ventures of university graduates. We know that some universities play an important role in many economies through their core education, research and development, and other spillovers. However, in order to support economic growth through entrepreneurship, universities must create a culture and programs that make entrepreneurship widely accessible to students. While MIT's leadership in developing successful entrepreneurs has been evident anecdotally, this study – one of the largest surveys of entrepreneur alumni ever conducted – quantifies the significant impact of MIT's entrepreneurial ecosystem that supports firm start-ups. Furthermore, while MIT is more unique and unusual in the programs it offers and in its historical culture of entrepreneurship, MIT provides a benchmark by which other institutions can gauge the economic impact of their alumni entrepreneurs. The report also provides numerous examples of programs and practices that might be adopted, intact or modified as needed, by other universities that seek enhanced entrepreneurial development. The Appendix identifies several universities that have carried out surveys of alumni entrepreneurs.
