Summary/Abstract: By analyzing some basic problems of the Bulgarian research system, the article aims to trace the limits of entrepreneurship and initiative in research laboratories in the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, to tell about the strategies pursued by scientists and researchers in their attempts to set their scientific findings on the road to the market. Taking as cases in point two research laboratories working in one of the most modern fields – nanotechnologies – the author argues that academic entrepreneurship is feasible despite the difficulties and the economic crisis, and despite the guardianship of the „mother institution“: it is high time for the latter to give greater freedom to her „children“
