Nordic Professor’s Privilege Model Outperforms UK University Equity Approach
By
–
And the evidence makes it clear that the way it works in the UK isn’t the way it has to be. The Netherlands and Germany are getting their act together, and the Nordics are far ahead of us: in 93% of Nordic deals, universities took 0% equity thanks to Professor’s Privilege.

Unhappy Alumni: 65% of Founders Won’t Donate

We also find that 65% of founders don't plan to become donors back to their alma matter. Unhappy alumni = no donors.

Founder Donations Correlate with School Permissiveness and Equity Retention
By
–
And here we see interesting correlations: a) Founders who donate come from schools that were more permissive and faster. b) Founders who don't donate parted ways with more equity and had a slower time spinning out. I've repeatedly made this point so hopefully this data helps.

UK Universities Demand Board Seats in Tech Spinouts

Alongside high equity stakes, a growing number of UK TTOs are now breaking with convention and demanding board seats – and in some cases, selecting senior management.

University Equity Policies and Founder-Friendly Support Comparison
By
–
And it's not a surprise to see that universities that take the lowest % equity (as a proxy for being permissive and founder friendly) receive the best founder reviews as you'll see on the next slide.
