Entrepreneurs struggle to pivot due to identity-based resistance, but overcoming this may be critical for business model experimentation. Convergent mixed methods reveal that entrepreneurial experience, startup mentoring, and team size enable pivoting, particularly regarding value propositions.

Despite the marital status of most entrepreneurs, our understanding of spousal influence on entrepreneurship remains limited. We conducted qualitative analysis on 18 spouse-entrepreneur pairs to explore the interactive nature and evolution of venture-related roles within couples. The study reveals that aligning entrepreneurial and spousal roles enables progress through innovation, creation, and growth stages. This extends existing literature on venturing roles, highlighting the significant impact of spouses in entrepreneurship.

The study highlights the potential adverse effects of action-oriented entrepreneurship training programs on trainees' entrepreneurial self-efficacy. The researchers suggest that error mastery orientation determines how trainees respond to complex problems during the program. Trainees with high error mastery orientation are less likely to experience decreases in self-efficacy when facing problems, while those with low error mastery orientation are more vulnerable. Understanding these self-regulatory factors can provide insights into how to mitigate the adverse effects of such training programs.

The paper focuses on how a founding team's cognitive diversity shapes the creation of a venture's culture and how this impacts venture outcomes such as reliability, legitimacy, and stakeholder engagement.

The study examines the relationship between startups' ESG properties and their financial performance in blockchain-based crowdfunding campaigns.

The study analyzes how the market overlap between startups founded by former employees of parent organizations affects their performance. The researchers propose that market overlap has a curvilinear relationship with the likelihood of survival of spin-outs. The previous hierarchical position of founders moderates this relationship. Market overlap helps reduce uncertainty, but too much overlap may lead to hostile actions by parent organizations, creating disruptive competition that lowers spin-outs' survival. The study uses European biotech spin-outs and their parent firms as a sample and finds support for the hypotheses.
