Economic Impact with a Multiplication Effect

Professor Antoncic has made a significant economic impact. He brought more than 1 million US Dollars to the institutions through research project grants. He has been involved in entrepreneurship, business projects, business modeling, and planning-related developments, with which various companies generated more than 50 million US Dollars in revenues. Economic influences of scientific works, which have had a worldwide impact, professional publications, handbooks, interviews, discussions, and teaching of entrepreneurship at universities on three continents have not been evaluated.

The generated knowledge is shared and flows in a decentralized way. The impact is noticeable in the economy and much less in the wallet of the professor. Being a professor means maximizing the giving back to the national and global society.
