Founder'S Investor Choice - Entrepreneurial Decision-Making In Light Of The Ivc-Cvc-Tradeoff

by Alexander G. W. Schroder

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 A founder’s decision for an investor can substantially influence the new venture’s success. Two common types of venture capital (VC) are independent venture capital (IVC) and corporate venture capital (CVC). Previous research focused on the investor’s perspective and studied the distinct differences between IVC and CVC, their value-adding capabilities, and risks. In contrast, as founders’ investor options have been rising, this research focuses on the founders and studies, which of the two types they prefer and why. The author outlines which investor characteristics founders favor and quantifies the value of these VC characteristics in terms of accepted equity dilution. The results show that founder preferences for the two VC types are highly heterogeneous. The author provides recommendations for founders on how to find the right investor and outlines how investors can position themselves to attract the most promising ventures and founding teams.<div> </div>

Effectiveness Of Information Use For Strategic Decision Making

by Wolfgang Ganswein

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 In general, effective strategic decisions are associated with a step-by-step analysis of information. However, such recommendations are detached from the realities decision makers are faced with, i.e uncertainty of a decision problem, abundance of information from various sources, as well as political behavior and personal idiosyncracies in the decision making process. Wolfgang Ganswein examines the interaction of these factors by using a broad sample of 230 decisions in a broad range of industries. The results show decision effectiveness is not only affected by uncertainty in a company's environment but also and even more significantly by the information processing preferences of a single decision maker.

Management Control In Small And Medium-Sized Enterprises - Indirect Control Forms, Control Combinations And Their Effect On Company Performance

by Jens Hutzschenreuter

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 Management control is one of the key management functions, but has been rarely addressed in academic research. Amongst other reasons, this disinterest might be rooted in the typically negative connotation of the term ‘control’. Academics rather prefer topics like strategy development, planning or organizational topics over control. Paradoxically, academics and managers both are highly interested and concerned with visions, strategies and plans; however, the majority of them fail or are not implemented successfully. One of the key reasons for this is the fact that the implementation and the subsequent control conducted by managers are often neglected. Managers could delegate the execution of plans and strategies to their subordinates; however, they have to take into consideration which activities can be delegated and how the progress should be controlled. Neither science nor practice has been able to provide acceptable answers to this open issue; thus there is a significant research gap. The research gap in the context of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is even larger - control here has been explored only in a considerably small number of studies. In the setting of small and medium-sized enterprises previous research has already demonstrated that management control is of greater importance than planning activities. This highlights the relevance of the research problem on how control should be executed in SMEs again.

Trust Of Potential Buyers In New Entrepreneurial Ventures - An Analysis Of Trust Drivers, The Relevance For Purchase Intentions, And The Moderating Effect Of Product Or Service Qualities

by Gunnar Wiedenfels

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 The concept of customer loyalty has come to play an important role in established businesses. It is a well-known fact that a higher level of customer loyalty leads to greater company success. As a result, instruments of Relationship Marketing and the role played by trust and the creation of trust are becoming increasingly important. This is also the case with young enterprises: Brinkmann, for example, has ascertained that customer loyalty can contribute to success even in the early stages of company development. However, the role played by trust in this process until now appears to have been insufficiently researched. There is agreement on principle that trust is also important for New Entrepreneurial Ventures. There is, however, a lack of clarity with regard to a suitable concept of trust so that Welter und Smallbone (2006) declare a "need for greater conceptual clarity with respect to the various forms of trust and the interrelationships between them". A series of studies is in fact already available in which theoretical models of trust are discussed; however, the scientific discussion has hitherto particularly lacked a broad empirical validation of the models considered. It would therefore be interesting to recognise which individual factors empirically influence a trust or trust development model in order to derive specific information for the companies involved in different industries or business phases. This is exactly where this dissertation by Gunnar Wiedenfels starts off.

Evolution Of Entrepreneurs` Fund-Raising Intentions - A Multiple Case Study Of Financing Processes In New Ventures

 Recent entrepreneurship research discusses numerous potential obstacles on the path towards business formation. The acquisition of resources, especially external finance, constitutesaformidablechallengefoundershavetomeet.Substantialrejectionratesof potential investors create external selection pressures on new ventures in that they contributetofailuresorinfluencethegrowthofsurvivingyoungcompanies.However, the founders themselves take an active role in the search for financial resources by addressing various potential financiers and taking decisions on the direction and continuation of their search for investors. Similarly, the results of the large US Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics point at the importance of adjustments in founders’ fund-raising intentions in the course of early stage financial development of new ventures. The work at hand focuses on this process of solving problems during the search for external funding in emerging new ventures. The author explicitly does not analyze which factors of success will allow to convince potential investors with certainty.

Antecedents Of Venture Firms' Internationalization - A Conjoint Analysis Of International Entrepreneurship In The Net Economy

by Julia Christofor

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 The objective of Julia Christofor’s thesis is to analyze and explain the propensity of firms and their respective entrepreneurs to internationalize. The focus of this thesis is primarily on firms with information-technology-based business models, i.e. Electronic-Business-Firms, which create value via digital networks. Such firms are often referred to as „Born Globals". It can therefore be assumed that on the basis of the distinct characteristics of the world wide web and because the market participants are globally interconnected via digital networks, these newly founded firms are more likely to internationalize early in their life cycle. Furthermore, because there have been fundamental changes in the technological, economic and societal spheres, the internationalization process and the propensity of these firms to offer their products on international markets may not necessarily be explained with the help of classical theories of internationalization. At the same time, the management of the newly founded E-Business firms, which are active in and pressured to thrive in a global competitive environment, are confronted with completely new challenges. The theoretical foundations presented from the academic internationalization literature stream only go some way to explaining the internationalization behavior of young E-Business-firms. This is especially due to the fact that these approaches basically relate to international, multinational and established firms.
