The objective of this work is to analyze the development of academic offshoots, specifically in the study of the profile of the academic entrepreneur and what are his motivations to become an entrepreneur. The results show that academic entrepreneurs are high status researchers with a broad experience in research and with a level of scientific quality superior to the average of the collective of researchers from public universities. On the other hand, the analysis of entrepreneurial characteristics shows great differences between the academic entrepreneurs and those who work outside the academy. In addition, the results indicate that what drives the action of entrepreneurship in academia are the motivations related to scientific knowledge and its development. The other motivational groups considered are less relevant.
