Entrepreneurial marketing effects on sport club manager performance (Conceptual Model)

Abstract

Since sport entrepreneurship has recently been proved critical to the sport industry success, herein, we tested conceptual model of entrepreneurial marketing for sport club managers in Tehran, Iran. In order to assess entrepreneurial marketing, club nature, performance scale, market orientation, and entrepreneurship orientation, standardized methods of measurements were applied. The face and content validity of the research tools were confirmed by experts of sport marketing while the construct validity was affirmed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Structural Equation Modelling (SME) was estimated using partial least squares method in Smart PLS software. Our results demonstrated that except for entrepreneurship orientation, there was a positive and significant relationship between all variables and organizational performance. Moreover, a positive and significant relationship was also detected between all variables, except for market orientation, and entrepreneurial marketing. According to the goodness of fit, the model fitness was good (0.621).

Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography and Modeling of Protein Adsorption on Hydrophobic Gel

“…In 1986 Fausnaugh and Rangier investigated the HIC adsorption of proteins in the presence of different types of salts and they find that the solvophobic theory could not completely explain the adsorption differences. In 1988 Timasheff and Arakawa explained specific salt-protein interactions in aqueous solutions in term of Preferential Interaction theory (PIT) [22][23][24][25][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39]. According to the PIT, lyotropic salts promote protein salting out by being preferentially excluded from the protein surface, by means of that promoting hydration of the surface and enhancing the protein stability.…”
