Abstract: Rapid technological developments make firms favor the creation of new approaches to corporate entrepreneurship and technology management.One approach, corporate-startup collaboration has reached a new level in the 21st Century and many different models currently exist as a result.However, research on how to evaluate the effects of those collaboration models is limited, and in some cases, non-existent.The purpose of this paper is to test if an analytical framework developed for measuring the results from corporate-startup co-location, also could be useful for measuring the results of other types of corporate-startup collaboration models.The framework is tested through the lens of the corporation and the collaboration unit.The empirical study includes 10 cases, representing five different corporate-startup models.The finding was that the analytical framework is useful in planning, analyzing and follow-up the results of many different corporate-startup collaboration models.
