Strategic entrepreneurship and small firm growth in Ghana
基于战略创业概念，利用441名创业者的数据，通过回归模型分析加纳小型企业成长的决定因素，发现企业家特征、企业资源和战略与成长正相关。
Using concepts derived from strategic entrepreneurship, this article discusses small firm growth models and investigates the determinants of small firm growth in Ghana. The study develops hypotheses that relate firm growth to investment in research and development, human capital, social capital, innovation and exporting. Using data from a sample of 441 entrepreneurs, the study develops ordinary least square regression models to test the hypotheses. The models find several positive relationships between firm growth and the characteristics of the entrepreneur, firm resources and firm strategy, and in so doing provide some support from a developing country for the strategic entrepreneurship framework.
