The authors' initial research on entrepreneurial and organizational profiles in top startups worldwide underlined that the presence of women as co-founders of globally successful startups is very limited (Giusepponi, Tavoletti & Tosi, 2019). The study presented here highlights that a female presence in the founding team supports the sharing of the vision and the effectiveness of the mission, and these elements are reflected in the organizational culture, specifically in the sense of corporate belonging and cohesion. This study is based on secondary sources derived from advanced analyses in terms of connections between variables within the startups studied. From an advancement perspective, the research could be deepened by studying other impact profiles and, considering that it is here limited to 109 top global startups, extended to other entrepreneurial realities.

Effective BDS may support enterprises in overcoming the crisis and finding resultative solutions. Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) states that BDS 'refer to services, such as advice, training, consultancy and mentoring, aimed at upgrading the managerial skills and business practices of SME managers' [1].

Being universities' sources of funding almost entirely domestic and in most countries primarily governmental, politicians are expected to ensure that the increasing public investment in higher education is justified by the fact that the benefits are captured by domestic workers and investors. In doing so they must avoid disrupting the international and free community of scholars and students pursuing knowledge, killing the goose that laid the golden eggs for so long. The European debate and frontiers of research concerning the interactions between universities and labour markets are analyzed. The much needed reform of university governance in Italy is evaluated in its premises and implications for the matching of higher education and labour market.
