The components of the KBD model include human and intellectual capital (research professors and research students), research products (journal articles, conference papers, books and patents), research funding, entrepreneurial spin\u2010offs emerging from the research capacities, and research\u2010based learning and education. Measures of performance for each of these components are explained and quantified for the KBD at Tecnol\u00f3gico de Monterrey. Management and technological issues are analyzed in deploying and implementing the research chair strategy, especially the method proposed for evaluating research chairs. An overall assessment of the approach is given based on the results of five years of operation. The internal and external impact of the model and its computer implementation are also analyzed and assessed.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p><jats:italic>This paper concludes that research outcomes at universities, research centers and institutes may be organized around a knowledge\u2010based model and a knowledge\u2010information computer system that supports the model. These serve the organization by disseminating knowledge assets, by solving economic and social needs in different regions, and by creating value for researchers and for the organization.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p><jats:italic>The paper describes a knowledge\u2010based model that proved useful for a university case. It can be adapted by organizations that generate knowledge and need to leverage it, not only for their own benefit but also as an engine of economic development for target regions. The model is supported by a knowledge\u2010information computer system and has been running for five years.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/13673270910931233","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,14]],"date-time":"2009-02-14T07:49:09Z","timestamp":1234597749000},"page":"154-170","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["A knowledge\u2010based development model: the research chair strategy"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Francisco J.","family":"Cant\u00fa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Bustani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arturo","family":"Molina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hector","family":"Moreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022013020000563900_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Aguirre, J.L., Brena, R. and Cantu\u2010Ortiz, F.
