基于创新创业能力培养的投资项目评估课程教学体系研究

在实施创新驱动发展战略的背景下,我国对创新创业人才的需求空前迫切。投资项目评估课程作为一门理论性与实践性并重的经济与管理专业课程,在创新创业教育教学实践中存在专业教育与创新创业教育缺乏融合、教师创新创业教育教学能力欠缺、学校缺乏创新创业实践平台供学生实践等问题。基于投资项目评估课程在教育教学实践中所存在的问题,研究该课程与创新创业教育有机融合的教学模式,为提高该课程的应用性,激发学生学习的积极与创造性,满足投资项目评估行业的创新创业人才需求,促进经济高质量发展提供参考意见。     

科技企业创业主体及其创业意愿影响因素分析

科技企业具有一定的技术含量和创业门槛,其创业主体主要为在职科技人员。科技人员在创业决策中有诸多顾虑,包括放弃现有工作的机会成本、技术入股的利益分配模式、创业中可能面临的各种难题等。虽然影响科技人员创业意愿的因素有多种,但归纳起来主要是两个方面的因素：个人特质和创业环境。构建了科研人员创业意愿影响模型并进行了实证分析。研究发现,科研人员的创业能力、资源获得能力、风险承受力,以及良好的政策环境、投融资环境、营销支持体系、创业教育支持体系,均与科研人员的创业意愿正相关。但大部分科研人员在创业态度上仍偏谨慎。所以,政策上应该支持多种创业形式,消除科研人员的创业顾虑。     

创业供应链相关研究述评及展望

市场竞争环境日趋激烈,竞争已经由过去的企业之间逐渐转变为供应链之间的竞争。创业和供应链均已成为学者们研究的焦点,然而关于创业供应链的研究才刚刚引起学者的重视。通过文献梳理,回顾和评析了以往的研究成果,在此基础上,对创业供应链的内涵进行界定,回顾了创业供应链的分类,分析了创业与供应链融合的动因,从理论基础、切入视角两个方面对现有的研究成果进行系统的梳理和评述,最后指出当前研究存在的不足,并对未来相关研究进行了展望。     

Some additional evidence on the interplay between corruption,tax policy and firm entry using US states

The effects that corruption and tax policy have on entrepreneurship and firm growth have been often studied in the literature. This current article adds to that literature by evaluating how the interaction effect between corruption and tax policy influences firm entry at the US state level, using a panel data set of all 50 US states between 2001 and 2014. Overall, the findings are consistent with the literature and suggest that while high levels of corruption and relatively burdensome tax policy have a negative effect on firm entry, high levels of corruption tend to dampen the negative effects associated with relatively high tax rates. Potential policy implications are discussed within this article.

Does venture opportunity variation matter? Investigating systematic process differences between innovative and imitative new ventures

The central thesis in the article is that the venture creation process is different for innovative versus imitative ventures. This holds up; the pace of the process differs by type of venture as do, in line with theory-based hypotheses, the effects of certain human capital (HC) and social capital (SC) predictors. Importantly, and somewhat unexpectedly, the theoretically derived models using HC, SC, and certain controls are relatively successful explaining progress in the creation process for the minority of innovative ventures, but achieve very limited success for the imitative majority. This may be due to a rationalistic bias in conventional theorizing and suggests that there is need for considerable theoretical development regarding the important phenomenon of new venture creation processes. Another important result is that the building up of instrumental social capital, which we assess comprehensively and as a time variant construct, is important for making progress with both types of ventures, and increasingly, so as the process progresses. This result corroborates with stronger operationalization and more appropriate analysis method what previously published research has only been able to hint at.

Risk attitudes of nascent entrepreneurs–new evidence from an experimentally validated survey

The influence of risk aversion on the decision to become self-employed is a much discussed topic in the entrepreneurial literature. Conventional wisdom asserts that being an entrepreneur means making risky decisions; hence more risk-averse individuals are less likely to become entrepreneurs. In contrast to previous research, we are able to examine empirically whether the decision of starting a business is influenced by objectively measurable risk attitudes at the time when this decision is made. Our results show that in general, individuals with lower risk aversion are more likely to become self-employed. Sensitivity analysis reveals, however, that this is true only for people coming out of regular employment, whereas for individuals coming out of unemployment or inactivity, risk attitudes do not seem to play a role in the decision process.

The Global Award for Entrepreneurship Research

The International Award for Entrepreneurship and Small Business Research was introduced in 1996, and it is now firmly established as the most prestigious award for outstanding research contributions in this subject area. Thanks to a generous donation from the Swedish entrepreneur Rune Andersson, it has been possible to make a number of changes aimed at strengthening global recognition of the Prize even further: the name is being changed to the Global Award for Entrepreneurship Research, the financial side to the Prize is being roughly doubled to 100,000 euros, and the system for nomination, evaluation, and selection of future Award Winners is becoming more structured and transparent. We present here the background to and the organization(s) behind the Award, briefly categorize the winners in the 1996–2008 period, describe the present and the future system for nomination, evaluation, and selection of Award Winners, and discuss the criteria for the selection of Prize candidates and Award-winning contributions.     

Marketing and advertising practices of Turkish entrepreneurs in transition economies: Evidence from Georgia

As a transition economy, Georgia has an uncertain, complex, and immature business environment, typical of transition economies in the Eurasian region. In an effort to provide insights into marketing and advertising practices in the Eurasian transition economies, this study empirically examines the marketing and advertising practices in Georgia through two surveys conducted with Turkish entrepreneurs in Georgia and Georgian consumers. On the one hand, the findings of the survey of the Turkish entrepreneurs indicated that an overall adaptation strategy is needed in Georgia; in addition, foreign entrepreneurs willing to enter the Georgian market are advised to offer a variety of products by collaborating with local distributors and agents. Although Georgian consumers do not have high income, low-price strategy does not always work as consumers equate low price with inferior quality. Marketing of prestigious products are to be sold at higher prices and appropriate product positioning strategies must be developed for each target market segment. Merchandising strategies must be congruent with the target market served as well as retail stores/outlets utilized. On the other hand, the Georgian consumers demand better customer service and increased variety of products; advertising is welcomed to a certain extent as long as advertising provides useful product/brand and company information.     

大学生创业意愿影响因素研究——模型与实证

通过对已有创业意愿影响因素相关理论及模型的梳理与总结,构建我国大学生创业意愿影响因素模型。实证研究发现,创业态度对创业意愿的直接影响较大,而背景因素、感知行为控制力对创业意愿直接影响较小,但它们还可以通过影响创业态度对创业意愿产生间接影响。创业政策对创业意愿没有直接影响。
