(2014, positive): “advantage is that the crowd may rely on the financial contracting skills and monitoring abilities of business angels, which furthermore provide hands-on advice and lend their reputation to the entrepreneurial firm (Hsu, 2004; Ferrary and Granovetter, 2009).”
- The Dynamics of Crowdfunding: An Exploratory Study (2014, background): “Thus, crowdfunding, like other forms of venture finance (Ferrary and Granovetter, 2009), offers a potential set of resources that go beyond capital which can be beneficial to founders.”
- Wisdom or Madness? Comparing Crowds with Expert Evaluation in Funding the Arts (2016, neutral): “As Ferrary and Granovetter (2009) write: “By selecting start-ups, the VC firms implicitly prevent the other agents in the complex network of innovation from collaborating with start-ups that do not get VC funding.”
- The gender gap in venture capital- progress, problems, and perspectives (2018, background): “…networked, not only with regard to connections across venture capital firms not only as evidenced by deal syndication (Bygrave 1992; Sorenson and Stuart 2001), but also with regard to other actors that chauffeur deals to the venture firms (Kenney and Florida 2000; Ferray and Granovetter 2009).”
- Exposed: Venture Capital, Competitor Ties, and Entrepreneurial Innovation (2014, background): “Given the substantial capital required to start an MIS firm, we reasoned that firms that did not raise any VC fundingwere unlikely to have a serious presence in the market and were likely less promising or were of lower quality (Ferrary & Granovetter, 2009).”
