Exploring start-up event sequences
Article Abstract:
Interviews of nascent entrepreneurs were conducted between 1992 and 1993 to identify patterns in the start-up of new business enterprises. Nascent entrepreneurs are those who have taken steps to establish businesses but have yet to actualize them. Nascent entrepreneurs can be divided into three categories, namely, those who have started business, those who have given up and those who are still trying. Results showed that nascent entrepreneurs should take steps to actualize their ventures to immediately determine whether such endeavors are worthwhile. Successful entrepreneurs have common behavior patterns which strongly influence their chances of success.
