Using a conjoint experiment, we examine the difference between entrepreneurs{\textquoteright} decision policies in start-up decisions versus persistence decisions. The analysis of the decisions of 135 entrepreneurs indicates that the way that entrepreneurs use expectancy and value in persistence decision policies is significantly different than the way that they use expectancy and value in general opportunity pursuit decision policies.

Governance structure is a well-understood knowledge protection strategy designed to reduce knowledge leakage concerns and thereby encourage desired knowledge transfers in two-party R\&D alliances. Whether governance structure can be an important balancing mechanism for R\&D alliances with multiple partner firms, or multilateral R\&D alliances, however, requires further study. Because increasing the number of alliance partners introduces additional complexities to managing an alliance, the appropriate governance mechanism for a multilateral R\&D alliance is likely to differ from that for a bilateral alliance. Drawing insights from social exchange theory, we explore governance decisions in multilateral R\&D alliances. First, we examine the potential for variance between multilateral and bilateral R\&D alliances in governance decisions as a means of knowledge sharing and knowledge protection. Results based on our analysis of 2,423 R\&D alliances, 1,690 bilateral and 733 multilateral, are consistent with predictions drawn from social exchange theory. We next focus on three-partner R\&D alliances, or trilateral R\&D alliances, and compare governance mechanisms between two types of trilateral R\&D alliances: chain and net. We find that equity governance structures are more likely to be used in net-based than in chain-based trilateral R\&D alliances; we also find that alliance scope moderates the relationship between the type of alliance and governance structure. Finally, we find that multilateral R\&D alliances with predicted (aligned) governance structures perform better, in terms of alliance longevity, than those with misaligned structures.}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Li,D. and Eden,L. and Hitt,M. and Ireland,R. and Garrett,Robert} } @article {1978451, title = {Core Business Prospects and the Management of Internal Corporate Ventures}, year = {2011}, month = {2011}, address = {San Antonio, TX}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Garrett,Robert} } @article {1978456, title = {Top Management Support and Initial Strategic Assets: Improving ICV Performance}, year = {2011}, month = {2011}, address = {San Antonio, TX}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Garrett,Robert and Neubaum,Donald} } @article {1978466, title = {Challenges of Quantitative Research on Internal Corporate Venturing}, year = {2010}, month = {2010}, address = {Kona, HI}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Garrett,Robert} } @article {1971066, title = {Challenges of Quantitative Research on Internal Corporate Venturing}, journal = {International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing}, volume = {2}, year = {2010}, month = {2010}, pages = {129-143}, abstract = {Internal corporate ventures are entrepreneurial initiatives that originate within the corporate structure (or within an existing business of the corporation) and are intended from inception as new businesses for the corporation.

Moderated regression analysis based on data collected from 111 manufacturing firms supports the hypotheses. Top management risk taking and market responsiveness positively predict the use of a pioneering strategy. Strategic learning self efficacy makes market pioneering more palatable to risk-averse top managers who might not otherwise engage in pioneering.
