Saturday, Aug 10 2013 11:15AM - 2:15PM at WDW Swan Resort in Swan 1 Sponsored by the BPS and TIM divisions
Organizers: Riitta Katila, Stanford University, Benjamin L. Hallen, London Business School, Emily Cox-Pahnke, University of Washington
Participants: Raphael Amit, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania; Gary Dushnitsky, London Business School; Ranjay Gulati, Harvard Business School; Michael Hitt, Texas A&M; Toby Stuart, University of California, Berkeley; Christoph Zott, IESE Business School
The purpose of this PDW is to discuss new theoretical approaches to studying recent empirical developments in the realm of entrepreneurial finance. Although prior research has highlighted how vital venture investors are to startup success, a variety of new forms of venture investing have arisen in recent years. These new organizations, and in some case organizational forms, are worthy of study by management and strategy scholars because of their contribution to fostering innovation and economic development. For example scholars have recently begun to study super angels, micro-VC funds and so-called crowd funding. Each of these new types of funding require different types of strategies by entrepreneurs seeking them out, and at the same time are likely to have different impacts on the firms that receive them. At the same time, we are also seeing evolution within more traditional forms of venture capital and corporate venture capital. In this PDW we will discuss the current state of entrepreneurial finance and the exciting variety of new avenues for fruitful inquiry in this realm. The PDW will begin with a panel discussion of senior scholars followed by breakout sessions to discuss current research interests by other interested scholars
