An analysis of recent research on venture capital networks
2019
Purpose – this paper examines recent trends in venture capital network research. Network analysis is a useful approach for analyzing inter-organizational networks, especially for venture capitalists, which are characterized by plenty of connections. Although important steps ahead have been made, several research questions are still unanswered. Research methodology – this brief review analyses deeply three papers which are representative of the novel scientific literature in this field. Scrutinizing these works, I identify their points of strength and weaknesses, in order to understand how to pave the way for further research. Findings – this paper shows that the study of network weak ties a…
Governing Complex Strategic Networks: Emergence Versus Enabling Effects
2017
In today’s knowledge-based economy, the sources of competitive advantage increasingly lie in webs of relationships between a variety of firms and organizations that, over time, lead to the emergence of strategic networks. As the performances of both the network actors and the whole network are strictly linked with the coordination and governance of network actors and their activities, this study aims to shed light on the ways in which the processes of network coordination and governance take place. Strategic networks are here viewed as complex adaptive systems, and the twin nature of the processes of strategic network coordination and governance is examined. On one hand, I underscore the em…
Fostering Dynamic Growth in New Ventures through Venture Capital: Conceptualizing Venture Capital Capabilities
2017
There is ample evidence of the influence of venture capital on the creation and growth of new ventures, yet scant attention has been paid to the heterogeneity of venture capitalists and their capacity to contribute to the dynamic growth of new ventures. This paper aims to contribute to the existing literature by exploring the notion that venture capitalists have beneficial effects on the growth of new ventures when they rely on a set of distinctive skills and processes that we associate with venture capital capabilities. We bridge the venture capital and resource-based view research streams to identify the foundational mechanisms of venture capital capabilities. We develop a set of proposit…
Unveiling the Role of Multiple blockholders: Evidence from Closely Held Firms.
2019
Research Question/Issue. This paper disentangles how the modes of ownership distribution among multiple blockholders and their heterogeneity shape principal–principal conflicts and, in turn, affect firm performance. The paper offers empirical evidence from a panel of Italian closely held firms over the period 2009–2014. Research Findings/Insights. We explore the principal–principal conflicts among blockholders across two distinct control structures. When a single blockholder controls the firm, principal–principal conflicts are shaped by the trade‐off between the alignment effect and the monitoring effect. In this scenario, we find that the relationship between the two largest blockholders' …
Las voces del interior rural valenciano: recursos naturales y resistencias al desarrollo
2020
[EN] This paper shows the results of two territorial diagnoses for employment and local development carried out in two rural regions of the province of Valencia. These diagnostics showed that these territories have abundant natural resources, but that lack of competent actors to dynamize them properly; either because they lack the means to do so (access to sources of financing, transport or basic infrastructure), or because they are not trained for it (aging population with lack of training), or because they do not have enough initiative (installed in a comfort zone).
Guía para la incorporación de la perspectiva de género en la docencia en Sociología, Economía y Ciencias Políticas
2019
Sociology has constructed a male worldview that entails a biased interpretation of social reality. For its part, the traditional economy has made invisible the dependence of the commercial sphere of the domestic sphere. And in the field of political science, we also find many gender biases in basic concepts such as justice, equality or citizenship. This article, based on the work done by the authors in the Guia per a una docència universitària amb perspectiva de gènere de Sociologia, Economia i Ciència Política, offers some proposals, teaching resources and consultation tools to introduce the gender perspective in teaching, knowledge transfer and research in these disciplines.
Random resampling numerical simulations applied to a SEIR compartmental model
2021
AbstractIn this paper, we apply resampling techniques to a modified compartmental SEIR model which takes into account the existence of undetected infected people in an epidemic. In particular, we implement numerical simulations for the evolution of the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain in 2020. We show, by using suitable measures of goodness, that the point estimates obtained by the bootstrap samples improve the ones of the original data. For example, the relative error of detected currently infected people is equal to 0.061 for the initial estimates, while it is reduced to 0.0538 for the mean over all bootstrap estimated series.
La disciplina della responsabilità amministrativa delle società e degli enti
2010
Il capitolo tratta della disciplina della responsabilità amministrativa delle società e degli enti (D. Lgs. 231/2001), con specifico riguardo agli aspetti economico-aziendali. L’adozione e l’attuazione dei modelli organizzativi possono infatti rappresentare un interessante strumento a supporto della riduzione del rischio generale di impresa, e di controllo dei rischi particolari. Particolare attenzione viene inoltre posta sui più recenti contributi della dottrina giuridica ed economico-aziendale in argomento, e sulla disciplina dell’organismo di vigilanza. Si tratta della versione aggiornata dell'edizione 2010 del volume
El marketing en los museos españoles
2011
En este trabajo de investigación hemos estudiado cómo aplican los museos españoles la disciplina del marketing para acabar recomendando una metodología para que éstos puedan diseñar su propio plan de marketing. El estudio comienza apoyándose en todo aquello que se ha publicado respecto el marketing en los museos, ciñéndose al ámbito geográfico de España, pero aportando también alguna bibliografía básica, de especial interés escrita fuera de las fronteras hispanas. El siguiente paso consiste en un recorrido sobre la historia de las instituciones museísticas que sirva de base para comprender la situación actual de los museos en España y su relación con el marketing, cuándo, cómo y porqué apli…
Proposal of a web site engagement scale and research model. Analysis of the influence of intra web site comparative behaviour
2011
A Web site engagement scale is suggested that serves as the basis of a two part-model. The first part studies the influence of the online comparative behaviour of consumers on Web site engagement using data obtained from respondents that selected a holiday package on an online travel agency capable of remotely tracing and recording their intra-Web page and intra-Web site behaviour. The second part of the model studies the influence of Web site engagement on consequences highly relevant for online marketers. The results confirm that the Web site engagement construct has five dimensions: positive affect, focused attention, challenge, curiosity and involvement. Likewise antecedents and consequ…
