摘要

这项研究提供了新的证据,证明参加种子加速器计划对初创企业的业绩和前景具有重要意义。这项工作的主要新颖性和贡献在于将分析置于一个新兴的创业生态系统(EE)中,并探索新企业的商业模式和技术水平的影响。我们通过对巴伦西亚(西班牙)735 家初创企业数据集的实证分析,检验了六项假设。研究结果表明,在这一环境中,加速的优势趋于减弱,比预期的更加微不足道。此外,种子加速器的情况对于企业的前景和对投资者的吸引力似乎并不重要。有趣的是,企业的技术水平与较高的投资额密切相关,但与较高的员工人数无关。资金与公司规模之间的预期直接关系也得到了证实。一个特别值得注意的发现是,较高的技术水平与企业对企业(B2B)模式之间存在直接关系,而与企业对消费者(B2C)模式之间则存在相反的关系。这些发现对管理部门和政策制定者有若干重要影响,包括加速型企业在完成大型投资回合方面明显缺乏优势,以及孵化器应优先考虑技术能力高且专注于 B2B 模式的新企业的建议。最后,我们强调了具有吸引投资和扩大规模的良好前景的初创企业的概况。

Assessing the impact of seed accelerators in start-ups from emerging entrepreneurial ecosystems

This study provides new evidence regarding the significance of enrolling in a seed accelerator programme for the performance and prospects of startups. The main novelty and contributions of this work lie in siting the analysis within an emerging entrepreneurial ecosystem (EE) and exploring the impact of both the business model and technological levels of new ventures. We tested a set of six hypotheses through empirical analysis of a dataset comprising 735 startups located in Valencia (Spain), a region representing the category of an emerging, medium-sized EE. The findings revealed that within this EE, the advantages of being accelerated tended to diminish and were more marginal than expected. Furthermore, the seed accelerator profile appeared to be of little importance to the prospects and attractiveness of firms to investors. Interestingly, their technological levels were strongly correlated with higher investment but not with a higher number of employees. The expected direct relationship between funding and firm size was also confirmed. A particularly noteworthy finding was the direct relationship between a higher technological level and business-to-business (B2B) models, as well as the opposite relationship for business-to-consumer (B2C) models. These findings have several significant implications for management and policymakers, including the apparent lack of advantages for accelerated firms in closing large investment rounds and the recommendation that incubators prioritise new ventures with high technological capacity and focussing on B2B models. Finally, we highlight the profile of startups with strong prospects for attracting investment and scaling up.

期刊介绍: The International Entrepreneurship and Management Journal (IEMJ) publishes high quality manuscripts dealing with entrepreneurship, broadly defined, and the management of entrepreneurial organizations. The journal will expand the study of entrepreneurship and management by publishing innovative articles based on different perspectives using a variety of methodological approaches and showing the practical implications of the research for its readership. IEMJ is unique; providing a multi-disciplinary forum for researchers, scholars, consultants, entrepreneurs, businessmen, managers and practitioners in the field of entrepreneurship. The journal covers the relationship between management and entrepreneurship including both conceptual and empirical papers, leading to an improvement in the understanding of international entrepreneurial perspectives of the organisations concerned. Entrepreneurial studies are important in creating new economic activity that in turn increases innovation, employment, economic wealth and growth. The journal focuses on the diverse and complex characteristics of entrepreneurship in SMEs and large companies in local, regional, national or international markets that lead to competitiveness in the face of the effects of globalization. Though preference will be given to manuscripts that are international in scope, papers focused on domestic contexts and issues are welcome also, in order to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and potential generalizability of findings worldwide. IEMJ will publish original papers which contribute to the advancement of the field of entrepreneurship and the interface between management and entrepreneurship, as well as articles on business corporate strategy and government economic policy. On occasions, the journal will also feature case studies of successful firms or other cases having important practical implications. The journal places great emphasis on the quality of the papers it publishes. Submission of a paper will imply that it contains original unpublished work and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Officially cited as: Int Entrep Manag J
