| dc.description.abstract | During this research it was investigated whether there is a moderation effect of a country´s evel of governmental economic control on the relationship between Venture Capital (VC) firms´ networks and start-up performance. After conducting a qualitative analysis, Singapore and India were found to be countries with respectively a low and a high level of governmental economic control. Samples of VC-backed firms in these countries were retrieved from a database created by Crunchbase and network measures were calculated. Multiple regression analyses were conducted for all samples and the results were compared to each other. No significant moderation effect of governmental economic control was found. There are however indications that with a different research design, future research could find this effect to be significant. | en_US |
