Entrepreneurial finance : from accelerators to IPOs
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Entrepreneurial finance is a cornerstone of economic growth. Prior work has done much to explore the financial outcomes of entrepreneurial financing. However, many gaps remain in our understanding of the organizational effects of these events. This dissertation addresses these gaps by applying organizational theory lenses to entrepreneurial finance in three tightly-linked papers. The first is a literature review on entrepreneurial finance, with a focus on IPOs and emerging fundraising mechanisms. The second paper uses over 1 million reviews from Glassdoor.com to assess how the addition of public shareholders affects employees when an organization goes public. Finally, the third paper examines how the composition of accelerator cohorts affects entrepreneurial learning and startup performance. Together, these papers contribute several findings to the literature on organizations and entrepreneurship, as well as insights for managers and entrepreneurs.
