Paper Abstract:
|
Extreme events are a challenge for any economy. That's why the state has an interest in promoting the capacity for
innovation that helps to cope with extreme events and their consequences. One part of these innovations that is
particularly relevant in the current pandemic is digital startups. Therefore, assessing the starting points for possible
interventions to increase the number of digital startups is necessary. To shape policy interventions, this paper provides
hypotheses on individual factors that can form the basis for designing these policy interventions. We first identify
different factors in the pre-start-up stage influencing the individual to become a nascent entrepreneur cited in general
literature and then derive hypotheses promoting nascent digital entrepreneurship. We propose to test these hypotheses in
further research, for example, through experimental tests of factor effects. These findings also hold potential for
practitioners. |
