Social support timing and persistence in nascent entrepreneurship: exploring when instrumental and emotional support is most effective (2017, background): “Thus, nascent entrepreneurs are embedded in social structures that simultaneously enhance and restrict their startup attempts through the social support or resources available to them (e.g., Birley 1986; Davidsson and Honig 2003; Arenius and De Clercq 2005; Hanlon and Saunders 2007; Kim et al. 2013;”
Romancing the rural: Reconceptualizing rural entrepreneurship as engagement with context(s) (2018, background): “For example, the social seems more evident in rural areas (Smith and McElwee, 2013; McKeever et al, 2014). Moreover, as Korsgaard et al (2015) argue, a comprehensive understanding of the role of context in rural entrepreneurship must also address spatial context.”
The Influence of Formal and Informal Institutional Voids on Entrepreneurship (2020, background): “…values, and beliefs can support entrepreneurship, empirical findings find that diversity within society can actually undermine entrepreneurship if the informal institutions do not also support cooperation and communication across the diverse groups (Lee, Florida, & Acs, 2004; Light & Dana, 2013).”
Knowledge spillover-based strategic entrepreneurship (2016, background): “This is due to there being a symbiotic relationship between individuals and their knowledge environments; and co-creators of knowledge may each be able to appropriate the value (Suseno and Ratten 2007; Ratten 2011; Light and Dana 2013; Ferreira et al. 2016).”
Capital is not enough: opportunity entrepreneurship and formal institutions (2018, neutral): “Yet, previous empirical findings have been largely mixed (Martin et al. 2013), and some scholars have questioned the conditions under which these different forms of capital can influence the entrepreneurial process (e.g., see Light and Dana 2013 for a critique of the social capital literature).”
