Publication on the effect of governmental support programs on startup internationalization
The research team used data from 681 European startups from the European Startup Monitor and analyzed the data using a regression-based bootstrap method. The results show interesting correlations between bricolage, innovation, internationalization and the moderating influence of public startup funding programs.
Based on the results, the researchers show that bricolage has a decisive influence on entrepreneurial innovation and thus positively influences the internationalization of startups. While government funding programs did not show a significant impact on the relationship between bricolage and innovativeness, the authors found a positive effect of funding programs on the relationship between startups' innovativeness and internationalization.
