This paper deals with the topic area “female entrepreneurship,” and the research focuses on the determinants of female entrepreneurs’ business success and sustainability, together with their impact on Taiwan’s economic development. According to the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) and the Financial Times Stock Exchange (FTSE) classification, Taiwan can be considered an emerging economy. Various liberal and social theories and Hofstede’s cultural dimensions were analyzed to develop some hypotheses, including some relevant success factors connected to female entrepreneurship in Taiwan. The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) and the Female Entrepreneurship Index (FEI) were relevant for the data analysis because the research was based on secondary data with 1098 observations, and a logistic regression model was performed. The factors of fear of failure and personal network correlated significantly to female entrepreneurs’ business success in Taiwan and the level of education had no significant correlation. Further research is recommended to include additional factors to achieve a higher accuracy of the model. A comparison of Taiwan with another region/country might also deliver some interesting insights.

Youth entrepreneurship has become an interesting phenomenon that has attracted much attention from academics, practitioners, and policymakers across the globe during recent years. The main objective of the paper is to analyze the demographic determinants of youth entrepreneurial success. Employing explanatory research design with a sample of 100 youth entrepreneurs in Gweru who completed the questionnaires, the hypotheses are analyzed using Pearson's correlation and regression analysis in an effort to empirically determine the influence of demographic factors on youth entrepreneurial success. The results show a strong and significant association between entrepreneurial experience and youth entrepreneurial success, a weak positive and significant association between educational qualification and youth entrepreneurial success, a weak negative association between age and youth entrepreneurial success, and a weak negative and significant relationship between gender and youth entrepreneurial success. These outcomes have significant implications for theory, practice, and future research.

Building on a typology of transnational firm types, developed by Landolt, Autler, and Baires in 1999, we examine whether immigrant attitudes toward the host country and their degree of embeddedness in the home country can predict the specific type of transnational enterprise that an immigrant is likely to begin. We also investigate whether the determinants of success of transnational enterprises vary by firm type. Based on a sample of 1,202 transnational business owners drawn from the Comparative Immigrant Entrepreneurship Project database, our analyses indicate general support for our hypotheses. More specifically, we found that transnational entrepreneurs‘ positive perceptions of host country opportunities and greater embeddedness in home country activities helped predict the specific type of ventures they would undertake. Further, the degree of embeddedness in the home country may influence the determinants of success for these types of firms. Depending on firm type, owners attributed their primary success to either personal characteristics, social support, or to the quality of their products and services.

Using a Logistic regression model the present study investigates the important factors that influence on ease of doing business by the women entrepreneurs. The respondents are from the four different backward regions in West Bengal, India. The goodness of fit of the model is checked in terms of the Hosmer–Lemeshow test. Moreover, a large share of the women-owned business is a single person enterprise, generates lower revenues, and is smaller in size. The study shows that most women are engaged in small entrepreneurs to help their families financially. Though, women entrepreneurs are facing challenges of financing and non-cooperation from their family members. Even from non-cooperation from the family, they are engaged in entrepreneurship after managing their households’ work. The level of productivity will be enhanced significantly in case easy access to credit and support received from the family members. The support may be in terms of mental as well by helping in households’ work. Further, the application of the Welch’s t-test shows the non-existence of a significant difference in income level among the two groups, who have faced complexities and who have no complexities into running the entrepreneurship. To improve the socio-economic status of the female counterpart of the society, initiatives from the grassroots level are absolutely essential.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Entrepreneurship is important to the growth of economies across the world. The businesses surveyed in this report are affiliated to the Western Cape Business Opportunities Forum and were winners and finalists in the Businessperson of the Year Competition. The Western Cape Business Opportunities Forum (WECBOF) was created to facilitate business opportunities and exposure for black and coloured people in the Western Cape. The Cape Flats have played an important role in the economy of the Western Cape in part as a result of an abnormal internal migration over the last 50 years. This population movement was the result of coloured people being affected by specific policies passed by the government of the time, in particular the Group Areas Act (Republic of south Africa, 1950). Through an analysis of empirical data this research project endeavours to facilitate a better understanding of the way in which entrepreneurs operating in small and medium business enterprises affiliated to the Western Cape Business Opportunities Forum (WECBOF) achieved success or ended in failure. This analysis hopes to contribute to the body of knowledge relating to entrepreneurship development in South Africa and in particular within the Western Cape. This research project adopts a statistical analysis approach by means of a questionnaire to examine the issues that relate to the success factors of entrepreneurs affiliated to the Western Cape Business Opportunities Forum. The results are presented in tabular format.

O trabalho apresenta uma avaliação crítica dos fatores determinantes para o sucesso de startups de TI no Brasil. As startups tem adquirido crescente interesse no mundo todo por empreendedores ávidos em seguir os caminhos do sucesso de players de tecnologia que como iniciantes, começaram numa garagem apenas com uma ideia e muita dedicação. Da expressão em inglês “começar do zero”, startups são as empresas que partem de uma ideia diferente com potencial de fazer dinheiro em pouco tempo e baixo investimento, ou seja, inovação com alto potencial de rentabilidade e escalabilidade, mas alto risco. Embora as startups de tecnologia de expressivo valor de mercado possuam relevância na economia, ainda são obscuros os fatores que levam ao seu sucesso, com poucas pesquisas acadêmicas explorando o tema. Como objetivos específicos a pesquisa identifica as referências de base culturais, econômicas e sociais que influenciam os fatores de sucesso e fracasso comparativos entre alguns dos principais clusters de inovação dos Estados Unidos e do Brasil, e identifica os fatores comparativos do empreendedorismo nas startups de TI entre alguns destes principais clusters de inovação. Analisa ainda as principais limitações enfrentadas por empreendedores no Brasil que resultam nas principais barreiras para o crescimento das startups de TI brasileiras e indica estratégias que possam oferecer suporte aos investidores em relação à viabilidade de startups, aumentando suas chances de criar uma empresa de elevado potencial no Brasil. Foi realizada uma pesquisa na literatura para identificar os elementos a serem pesquisados. A pesquisa apresenta um estudo de campo exploratório de natureza quantitativa que abordou 217 empreendedores do Brasil e qualitativa com 37 pessoas do ecossistema de startups, sendo nove dos Estados Unidos e 28 do Brasil. Nos Estados Unidos o pesquisador visitou o Vale do Silício e região de Boston. No Brasil foram visitados cinco clusters de inovação, em Recife, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre e São Paulo. As evidências foram agrupadas em dimensões de análise e os resultados levaram às seguintes considerações: foi possível identificar uma lacuna na educação empreendedora e no papel da universidade quanto a uma maior integração com o segmento empresarial; no governo observa-se a necessidade de desburocratização do setor público e privado na melhoria dos serviços básicos de infraestrutura; um dos fatores mais relevantes da pesquisa foi a identificação da determinação do principal fundador na busca da realização do sonho grande e na criação do time de talentos, sendo que inicialmente seu objetivo não é especificamente o de tornar-se rico; outro fator é a dificuldade do brasileiro em utilizar capital para o risco, visto que o custo Brasil e os fatores culturais geram um elevado grau de incerteza do retorno. Por fim, apesar de o Brasil ser “too little, too late”, existe um desejo generalizado de gerar startups de elevado potencial, ou seja, com valor de mercado superior a U$ 1 bilhão.
This dissertation presents a critical assessment of the determining factors for the success of IT startups in Brazil. The world of startups has gained increasing worldwide interest for eager entrepreneurs in following the ways of the success of major players in technology that once beginners, began in a garage only with an idea and a lot of dedication. From the expression in English "start from the scratch", startups are companies that start from a different idea with potential to make money in a short time and low investment, that is, innovation with a high potential for profitability and scalability, but high risk. Although the technology startups with great market value have relevance in the economy, the factors that lead to their success are still unclear with few academic researches exploring the theme. As specific objectives the research identifies the economic, social and cultural basis references that influence the comparative factors of success and failure among some major innovation clusters in the United States and in Brazil, identifies the comparative factors of entrepreneurship in IT startups among some major innovation clusters in the United States and in Brazil, analyzes the main constraints faced by entrepreneurs in Brazil that result in major barriers to the growth of Brazilian IT startups and indicates strategies that can offer support to the investors regarding the viability of startups , increasing their chances of creating a great potential company in Brazil. A survey was conducted in the literature to identify the elements to be searched. The research presents a quantitative exploratory study field that approached 217 entrepreneurs from Brazil and a qualitative one with 37 people from the startup ecosystem, 9 of them from the United States and 28 from Brazil. In the United States the researcher visited the Silicon Valley and Boston area and in Brazil five innovation clusters were visited in Recife, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre and São Paulo. Data was grouped into analysis dimensions and the results have led to the following considerations: it was possible to identify a gap in the entrepreneurial education and in the role of the university in a greater integration with the corporate sector; in the government on the need of reducing bureaucracy of the public and private sector in improving basic infrastructure services; one of the most relevant factors of the research was the identification of the principal founder determination in pursuing the realization of the great dream and in the creation of the talent team, considering that his initial goal was not specifically to become rich; a difficulty of the Brazilian to use the capital for risk, as the cost in Brazil and cultural factors generate a high uncertainty degree about the return. Finally, although everything in Brazil is "too little, too late", there is widespread hope of generating highly successful startups in Brazil, that is, with a market value of more than $ 1 billion.

This study seeks to improve the understanding of Indigenous Enterprise Development (IED) efforts undertaken on communal Indigenous land in the Northern Territory of Australia. Success in enterprise may support the achievement of a range of social, political and economic objectives for Indigenous peoples. The thesis offers a contribution to knowledge and literature on IED by bringing understanding to the meaning of success for Indigenous enterprise, identifying those factors that contribute to its success as well as presenting the barriers that prevent it. This study is the most recent rigorous scholarly work of IED on Indigenous land in the Northern Territory. The focus of this research is on Indigenous commercial enterprise development at a communal and individual level. Indigenous enterprise development is said to be different from other forms of enterprise development because of the legal rights of Indigenous peoples and because of particular cultural attributes, such as different perceptions of property rights in the Indigenous context and an emphasis on values like collectivism and sharing. These differences are found to shape notions of success and approaches to development. The research reviews literature in the international and domestic context on Indigenous economic development and Indigenous entrepreneurship. It also draws from internal and external documents of relevant institutions and news sources. These sources and findings are then built upon with fifty six in-depth, face-to-face interviews of selected participants who are experts or opinion leaders on IED in the region. These participants represented a variety of interest groups such as the government, academia, the Indigenous community and businesses from both Indigenous and non-Indigenous cultures in the Northern Territory. This study used a qualitative research approach for data collection and analysis. The researcher utilized a qualitative data analysis method, including the reporting of field notes, preparation of field notes into transcripts, coding of data, display of data, the development of conclusions, and creation of a report. This study identified five categories of barriers to successful enterprise development on Indigenous land in the Northern Territory. These barriers are: high levels of conflict and mistrust, socio-cultural norms and values that can work against success, a lack of human capital, a poor institutional framework and economic and structural factors. There were four categories of factors found that support the development of successful Indigenous enterprise: developing business acumen, integrating culture within the enterprise, separating business from community politics and greater independence from government. While definitions of success varied across the region there were common objectives for Indigenous enterprise, such as eliminating welfare dependency and maintaining a link to land. Ultimately, success for Indigenous enterprise was deemed to be business survival, but in ways that are congruent with each Indigenous community?s values. The findings in this research emphasize that certain cultural attributes may act to constrain successful enterprise development, but can be integrated into an enterprise through changes in enterprise structure, or practice, to support successful economic outcomes. The research also emphasizes the importance of institutional settings on human capital and successful enterprise development in the region. This study?s findings can potentially guide and inform further research in this field. The research develops a number of policy recommendations which offer potential support to policymakers in addressing the important social problem of Indigenous disadvantage through enterprise development initiatives.This study seeks to improve the understanding of Indigenous Enterprise Development (IED) efforts undertaken on communal Indigenous land in the Northern Territory of Australia. Success in enterprise may support the achievement of a range of social, political and economic objectives for Indigenous peoples. The thesis offers a contribution to knowledge and literature on IED by bringing understanding to the meaning of success for Indigenous enterprise, identifying those factors that contribute to its success as well as presenting the barriers that prevent it. This study is the most recent rigorous scholarly work of IED on Indigenous land in the Northern Territory.

SPECIALISING IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND NEW VENTURE CREATION
Johannesburg, 2016Technology entrepreneurship is vital to economic development as it could have positive effects on employment and could rejuvenate industries, especially through disruptive technologies. Studies have shown that South Africa has one of the highest new venture failure rates across the globe and it is, therefore, becoming critical to determine the key factors of successful technology ventures that could contribute to sustaining new technology ventures in South Africa. With the Internet of Things (IoT) fast becoming the most exciting technology trend aimed at transforming everyday business and individual lives, this study set out to investigate the key success criteria for IoT new ventures, as well as key sectors for IoT within South Africa. Linking technology entrepreneurship and the opportunities provided by IoT, this research aims to identify the key success criteria of entrepreneurial ventures within South Africa, as well as analyse the South African IoT ecosystem to determine which sectors provide the greatest opportunity for technology entrepreneurs. This research was conducted through primary research across IoT new technology ventures, as well as enterprises across industries within South Africa. The study found that successful ventures and unsuccessful ventures have different entrepreneur characteristics. A key characteristic for successful IoT ventures is entrepreneur ambitions, while education is the biggest hindrance to unsuccessful ventures. The related car and fleet management industries were found to provide the largest opportunity for IoT entrepreneurship in South Africa. This study provides valuable insight into the IoT market that will aid the sustainability of IoT entrepreneurship. From an academic perspective, it supplements the existing literature on technology and IoT entrepreneurship in South Africa.

This chapter focused on the determinants for SMEs and entrepreneurship post-pandemic success. SMEs and other enterprises have been greatly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic globally with diverse outcomes. While some SMEs have experienced failures and have permanently closed operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, other SMEs have shown resilience and have been able to adapt their operations to cope during and post pandemic periods. The resilient SMEs' successes have been made possible by several critical factors in the internal and external business environments. Some of the determinants for SMEs and entrepreneurship post-pandemic success include financial literacy and savings culture and technology adaption. Furthermore, identified challenges that hamper SMEs' survival and post-pandemic success rate include financial challenges and lack of online presence. Finally, recommended solutions to challenges that hinder SMEs' post-pandemic success include SME participation in capacity development programmes.

Small businesses represent an important element of many western economies. However, they often struggle with resources needed to succeed, and small business owners often have to perform many, if not all, roles in their organizations. One of the key functions that small businesses need to excel at for business success today is social commerce since much of their business is migrating towards the use of social media for business. In this study, determinants of social commerce benefits for small businesses are explored. Using survey data from 60 small companies, this research identifies stakeholder pressure and partner pressure as the most significant factors in determining social commerce benefits for small business. Implications of these findings and provide suggestions for future research are discussed.

The purpose of this chapter is to extend the research on determinants of entrepreneurial intentions in the agricultural industry by using the theoretical framework of determinants of entrepreneurial intentions and entrepreneurial event model. By employing the DEI and EEM, the researchers evaluate how perceived desirability, perceived feasibility, individual background, and triggering events can influence the attitude of an individual and in turn how entrepreneurial attitude can control entrepreneurial intentions. To achieve the objective, a questionnaire survey was held using the sample of 335 PhD, master, and bachelor students in commerce, business, and economics from an Indian central university. The data was analysed using a linear regression model. The findings advocate that perceived desirability, perceived feasibility, individual background, and triggering events are positively related to entrepreneurial attitude, and the entrepreneurial attitude positively and significantly influences entrepreneurial intentions in the agricultural sector.

This piece of research aims to explain the drivers of early-stage entrepreneurship in factor-driven economies and how these are affected by several cognitive factors. This study covers literature on several driving factors of entrepreneurial activity, trying to formulate a framework of determinants of early-stage agricultural entrepreneurial activity. For this purpose, the adult population survey (APS) data of factor-driven economies published by GEM has been used. The selected respondents (848) include those individuals who, alone or with other individuals, presently involved in venture creation, including any self-employment in the agricultural sector. The impact of cognitive and social capital factors on early-stage entrepreneurial activity is measured using logistic regression. The findings suggest that its opportunity perception and self-efficacy, which are the major motivators of early-stage entrepreneurship in developing nations. Also, there are gender biases and age-related negativity with respect to new agri-business creation in developing countries.

This chapter explores the factors affecting women entrepreneurial attitudes across a range of European cultures. It acknowledges that women's socio-cultural profile across Europe has become an interesting issue to consider. The findings show that getting an insight into the world of women entrepreneurs helps us to understand their roles, expectations, and the factors that influence their entrepreneurial attitudes across different cultures. In addition, gender-based differences and stereotypes are noted as prevalent in the enterprise and entrepreneurship. Despite the challenges, this chapter indicates the women's success in business ventures and why they are perceived as entrepreneurs operating in a European culture. This chapter concludes by calling for a change from the traditional masculinity and femininity validation to the modern perception of women entrepreneurship as the way for innovation and economic growth.

Numerous nations hail the agriculture sector as a critical source of wealth creation, and past researches have shown the importance of entrepreneurship in the agriculture industry. However, there is a substantial difference in men and women's rates of taking entrepreneurial initiatives. Prior research has overlooked the significance of entrepreneurial inclination in creating agricultural start-ups from the perspective of gender. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the factors that influence women entrepreneurs working in the business endeavours of the agriculture sector. Using logistic regression, the study looked at a representative interview of 581 samples with individuals (18–65 years of age) from GEM countries. This model demonstrates the connection between the variables' qualities reliant on the data and the determinants. The chapter suggests that policymakers consider the consequences of promoting women's entrepreneurship in the agricultural industry and evolve the policies accordingly.

In the 1980s, the renewal of academic interest in entrepreneurship as a factor of development highlighted the role of entrepreneurs in creating jobs and driving innovation. In the new century, fostering entrepreneurship became a public policy priority. In Portugal, the practice of creating business incubators has been gaining momentum and various institutions have developed business incubation activities. This study focuses on ADRAL – Agência de Desenvolvimento Regional do Alentejo, an agency for the regional development of Alentejo – and analyzes one of its instruments for the promotion of entrepreneurship – the creation of business incubators (also designated as enterprises' nests) located in Marvão and Montemor-o-Novo. These chapter focus on these two cases and assess the distinctive aspects of the partnerships between the development agency and the municipalities, and also the characteristics of the entrepreneurial projects and respective entrepreneurs, aiming at identifying the specificities of this approach and its success determinants.

Religion has been identified as an important determinant of economic behaviour because the event of enterprise creation is seen to be a consequence of the association between environmental conditions and the entrepreneurial behaviour of individuals determined by their socio-cultural background. Studies have examined how religious beliefs influence the entrepreneurial intention of the adherents, and to understand whether it is doctrine, practices, organisation or culture of religion that shapes this entrepreneurial propensity. This chapter examines the issue of religion-entrepreneurship link among the Pentecostal Christians in Nigeria and in Diaspora, by reviewing both theoretical and empirical literature. It looks at how Pentecostal theology has legitimised entrepreneurship and examines the mechanism through which is imparting entrepreneurial values and affecting patterns of thinking of the adherents. The chapter provides overview of what make them display psychological traits and attitudes consistent with entrepreneurship as a result of success-oriented theologies.

The purpose of the paper is to discuss the characteristics of the blockchain (hereinafter “BT”) industry and factors that affect the success of BT-based startup companies. Due to the novelty of BT technology, the current period of its development is associated with a high number of newly emerging firms that are predominant in the BT industry. The study seeks to address the two main research questions: What are the key characteristics of the BT industry? What are the factors that determine the success of BT-based companies? To answer these questions, the method of the systematic literature review was applied. The discussion of the reviewed 43 publications led to the classification of literature sources into six categories, including research streams on BT in the contexts of entrepreneurial finance, institutional theory, digital and social entrepreneurship, business models, and international business. The results suggested that the early success of the BT-based startups’ entry and growth related to the supportive entrepreneurial environments, a greater degree of regulatory clarity, the formation of strategic associations, entrepreneur’s active engagement in sharing expertise and shaping the regulations and standards, a profound business model, and experienced management. It is recommended that policymakers should support the creation of new ventures and the transfer of knowledge about BT. Managers of established companies should cooperate with startups to adopt BT applications into their business models. Future research should be based on empirical research studies, namely cluster analysis, to identify the determinants of success/failure of BT-enabled startup firms. This paper contributes to BT research and the literature on the emergence of new industrial fields and ventures.

This article pays more attention to the analysis of the direct relationship between staff motivation and applied leadership, with the final result - the sustainability of the organization's activity. Organizational culture and the environment are characterized by mutual adaptation, by the way in which human practices and organizations are led to a cohabiting relationship. Their adaptation is defined as a learning process, rather than an activity in itself, guided by material forces. Through this article we aim to highlight the importance of the interdependent relationship between staff motivation, leadership and sustainability. A big obstacle is the lack of awareness of this triangular relationship, at the level of the organization's management. Starting from the theory of self-motivation and from the research of psychologists Edward Deci and Richard Ryan, we deduce that each individual has three basic psychological needs: the need for connection, the need for competence and the need for control, which must be met. If, at the level of the organization's management, there is a real concern about these needs, employees will feel motivated to maximize their involvement in achieving proposed objectives. The need to connect refers to the desire to be visible, valued, respected, unique, self-confident, connected, belonging to a group. The need for competence implies the need to be able, to succeed. The need for control is the power to make decisions, to make choices, to be the source of your own behaviors. Satisfying these needs of the team members must be a real concern of the leader, if the sustainability of the organization's activity is desired.
