“…Therefore, firms are required to adopt an entrepreneurial posture to outperform their rivals in the marketplace and achieve a superior performance (Ireland et al 2003, Kuratko andAudretsch 2013;Morris et al 2011;Wales 2016;Zahra 1993). The role entrepreneurship has been scrutinized on innovation performance, firm performance in both domestic and international business context, firm capabilities including innovation, marketing and learning capabilities (Boso et al 2018;Genc et al 2019;Monteiro et al 2019).…”

while an entrepreneur fosters and realizes an idea by starting a new venture (Gartner et al. 1988). Blanka (2019, p. 551) proposes a definition for intrapreneurship by encompassing the multilevel nature of the construct which is "intrapreneurship is a process whereby employee(s) recognize and exploit opportunities by being innovative, proactive and taking risks, in order for the organization to create new products, processes and services, initiate self-renewal or venture new businesses to enhance the competitiveness and performance of the organization."

“…In the view of Chiu et al (2015), the firm"s resources/capabilities will bring forward specific long-term/ financial benefits. Previous studies also show that firms' resources and capabilities affect performance positively, after influencing/ reinforcing strategies in the external markets, as per Dhanaraj and Beamish (2003) plus Monteiro et al (2019). On the basis of FDI theory, Franco et al (2008), Hou (2003) researched that FDI decisions are backed by three motivations includes, search for market, resource, and efficiency.…”

International firms are highly sensitive to the performance of their subsidiaries and want to understand the factors behind their monetary success. Thus, numerous strategies are employed by these International firms to explore subsidiaries’ performance determinants; usually, these include subsidiary level attributes, ignoring the parent’s impact along with its country. To address this gap we construct a multi-level research that focuses the subsidiary, parent attributes along with countries’ Governance Indicators while predicting the determinants of subsidiary performance in Pakistan.We use two different levels i.e. parent & subsidiary level; multi-level analysis approach with HLM (Hierarchical Linear Model) in this research paper. Governance indicators of both parents and subsidiaries were taken explanatory factors along with Market growth, size, Performance, R & D, capital structure as well as asset management policies of parent. Subsidiary level factors included parents’ ownership, size, equity, and capital investment. 26 multinational companies listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange were included. Data was taken from the year 2012 to 2018. Selected companies cover around ten sectors of Pakistan Stock Exchange.The study revealed that on both levels; parents and subsidiaries, Governance institutions are more influencing factors rather than companies’ own attributes. We recommend that before investing in a country, international businesses should take into account Governance institutions (by World Bank); more than their own attributes.Originality/value - This study contributes to the existing approaches to determining subsidiary performance through adding Governance institutions and parent level attributes. Especially it explores the determinants of subsidiary performance in a developing country; Pakistan in the Asia continent.

“…At present, scholarly research on social entrepreneurial intention mainly focuses on meaning (Anderson et al, 2010; Morris et al, 2011), measure (Kraus et al, 2012; Dwivedi and Weerawardena, 2018), the individual characteristics and entrepreneurial background of entrepreneurs, and the impact of social capital on entrepreneurial intention (Fan and Wang, 2005), the impact of opportunity identification on entrepreneurial intention and the role of entrepreneurs in opportunity identification (Zahra et al, 2009; Corner and Ho, 2010; Conger et al, 2012; Alvarez et al, 2014), the relationship between entrepreneurial motivation and entrepreneurial intention (Monteiro et al, 2013; Hockerts, 2015), the role of the national system on entrepreneurial intention (Estrin et al, 2013; Mendoza et al, 2015), etc. Moreover, Liu and Zhuang (2018) found that due to the lack of systematic theoretical construction, existing research cannot further reveal the deep logical relationship between the motivation, process and performance of social entrepreneurship through combing the quantitative research documents on social entrepreneurship published in international mainstream management journals since 2005, and they suggested that the internal mechanism of social entrepreneurship should be deeply explored through intermediary variables.…”

Can Sense of Opportunity Identification Efficacy Play a Mediating Role? Relationship Between Network Embeddedness and Social Entrepreneurial Intention of University Students

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Social entrepreneurship is an entrepreneurial activity centering on solving social problems and creating social values, which can effectively alleviate the problems of sustainable development such as an excessive gap between the rich and the poor, a lack of resources and so on, and can resolve the “triple failures” of government, the market and public welfare departments to a certain extent. As the subjective attitude of entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial intention can predict a representational incidence rate of entrepreneurial behavior. Therefore, aimed at university students, a special group of entrepreneurs, this paper constructs a theoretical framework of “network embeddedness – sense of opportunity identification efficacy – university students’ social entrepreneurial intention” from the perspective of social cognitive theory through 466 pieces of valid survey data, and uses Stata 14 to construct a multiple linear regression model to explore the mechanism of action between the three. The results show that university students’ sense of opportunity identification efficacy can significantly and positively stimulate their social entrepreneurial intention, and the network embeddedness (network scale and network intensity) of entrepreneurs is also significantly and positively correlated with their sense of opportunity identification efficacy; however, via the hierarchical regression model, it was found that the sense of opportunity identification efficacy can only partially mediate the relationship between network embeddedness and university students’ social entrepreneurial intention, which is mainly manifested in the positive correlation between university students’ social entrepreneurial intention and their network scale, and is unrelated to network intensity. This research contributes to enriching the theory of social entrepreneurial intention and guides the strengthening of university students’ social entrepreneurial intention in reality.
