They also theorize that quality of ties is an important moderator of the impact of social network structure on new venture performance. The empirical evidence suggests that trustworthiness of network contacts is indeed an important contingency factor that moderates the relationship between network sparseness and new venture performance. Overall, their findings underscore the importance of social ties in emerging economies where such ties often substitute for missing or underdeveloped institutions.Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
