  • silicon valley Venture Capitalist confidence index
    Social Science Research Network, 2018
    Co-Authors: Mark V Cannice
    Abstract:

    Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist confidence in the Bay Area entrepreneurial environment rose in the final quarter of 2017. The upward change in direction of sentiment was levered to increasing amounts of available funding to support entrepreneurs working to introduce breakthrough technologies that aim to transform industries and change the trajectory of business. Macroeconomic metrics, particularly those tied to recent changes in corporate tax policy, also suggest a dynamic business environment where more corporate resources may be deployed to the development and acquisition of innovation. Record public stock market valuations also provide corporations a richer share currency to acquire innovation, thus providing additional exit opportunities and incentives for entrepreneurs and their Venture capital backers.

  • adequacy of agency theory in explaining the Venture Capitalist entrepreneur relationship a firm life cycle perspective
    International Journal of Entrepreneurship and Small Business, 2018
    Co-Authors: Swati Panda
    Abstract:

    This paper explores the adequacy of agency theory in explaining the Venture Capitalist (VC)-entrepreneur relationship through a firm life-cycle perspective. The findings indicate that advanced stage relationships suffer severely from agency risks while early stage relationships are less affected. The findings have important theoretical implications, as they propose boundary conditions along which agency theory can be applied to the VC-entrepreneur relationship. VCs and entrepreneurs can utilise the recommendations for better decision making, leading to an improved working relationship.

  • exploring the Venture Capitalist entrepreneur relationship evidence from india
    Journal of Small Business and Enterprise Development, 2016
    Co-Authors: Swati Panda, Shridhar Dash
    Abstract:

    Purpose – Maintaining cooperation and avoiding opportunism is essential for a healthy Venture Capitalist (VC) – entrepreneur relationship. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the role of control and trust for developing a cooperative VC-entrepreneur relationship in an agency environment in the Indian context. Design/methodology/approach – The study adopts a multiple case study approach to investigate ten VC-entrepreneur dyads. It uses data collected from both primary and secondary sources. Content analysis was used as the data treatment technique. Findings – The empirical evidence indicates that VC-entrepreneur relationships emerging in the early stages suffer from low agency risks and use more of relational mechanisms to curb opportunism and develop cooperation while relationships at an advanced stage suffer from higher agency risks and employ more of control mechanisms to address it. Practical implications – The findings can be utilized to enhance cooperation in VC-entrepreneur relationsh...

  • adequacy of agency theory in explaining the Venture Capitalist entrepreneur relationship a firm life cycle perspective
    Social Science Research Network, 2015
    Co-Authors: Swati Panda
    Abstract:

    This paper explores the adequacy of agency theory in explaining the Venture Capitalist (VC) – entrepreneur relationship through a firm life-cycle perspective. In the process, it draws the temporal boundaries in the relationship which are adequately explained by the agency theory. The findings indicate that early stage relationships are plagued little by agency risks while the relationships that are developed at an advanced stage suffer from severe agency risks. Based on these findings, it’s prudent for the stakeholders in the early stages to invest in relational mechanisms for curbing agency risks while contractual mechanisms are essential for advanced stage relationships. The findings have important implications for VC-Entrepreneur relationships as it can lead to better decision making through increased level of cooperation.

    Abstract:

    Maintaining cooperation and avoiding opportunism is essential for a healthy Venture Capitalist (VC)-entrepreneur relationship. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore the role of control and trust for developing a cooperative VC-Entrepreneur relationship in an agency environment in the Indian context. The study adopts a multiple case study approach to investigate 10 VC-Entrepreneur dyads. It uses data collected from both primary and secondary sources. Content analysis was used as the data treatment technique. The empirical evidence indicates that VC-Entrepreneur relationships emerging in the early stages suffer from low agency risks and use more of relational mechanisms to curb opportunism and develop cooperation while relationships at an advanced stage suffer from higher agency risks and employ more of control mechanisms to address it. The findings can be utilized to enhance cooperation in VC-Entrepreneur relationship by identifying the appropriate context to apply relational or control mechanisms, which would eventually lead to better performance of the Venture. This distinction results in the development of a theoretical model which shows how the dual governance mechanisms of control and trust interact with one another to affect confidence in partner cooperation as an entrepreneurial Venture raises multiple rounds of Venture capital across various stages. The data collected from Indian VC-Entrepreneur dyads offers a rich description of the relationship dynamics across the Indian entrepreneurial ecosystem.
