Does using latest technologies impact new venture innovation? A contingency-based view of institutional environments
基于资源基础理论和制度理论,研究了早期创业者使用最新技术对企业创新的影响,发现国家监管和有利环境会强化这种正向关系。
Drawing on resource-based theory and institutional theory, we develop a multi-level model on the outcomes of early stage entrepreneurs employing latest technologies in their ventures. Essentially, we argue that the effects of using latest technologies on new venture innovation are moderated by the nature of a country’s regulative, conducive, normative, and cognitive environments. Results indicate that the entrepreneur who employs higher levels of latest technology usage in a country exhibit higher innovation as compared to others as regulatory and conducive environments of the country strengthen. These results contribute to the literature examining international comparative entrepreneurship determinants of productive entrepreneurship.
