A Conjoint Analysis of Angel and VC Decision-Making0 aPassion for Entrepreneurship or Passion for the Product A Conjoi  c2018  a315-3320 v333 aPassion is important to venture investors, but what specifically do they want entrepreneurs to be passionate about? This study theorizes that angel investors and venture capitalists consider both entrepreneurs' passion for activities related to the product or service the venture provides (i.e., product passion) and passion for founding and developing new ventures (i.e., entrepreneurial passion). We demonstrate that both types of passion become more appealing when the investor perceives that the entrepreneur is highly open and receptive to feedback, suggesting that openness to feedback mitigates potential concerns associated with passion in its extremes. We further find that venture investors differ in their consideration of passion; angel investors and venture capitalists with more investing experience place greater emphasis on the combination of product passion and openness to feedback, whereas those with more entrepreneurial experience emphasize the combination of entrepreneurial passion and openness to feedback.10aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aWarnick, Benjamin, J.1 aMurnieks, Charles1 aMcMullen, Jeffery, S.1 aBrooks, Wade  u/biblio/passion-entrepreneurship-or-passion-product-conjoint-analysis-angel-and-vc-decision-making00675nas a2200181   4500008004100000245010100041210006900142260000900211300001200220490000700232653003200239100002200271700002400293700001900317700001800336700001700354856012200371       2016                        eng d00aDrawn to the Fire: The role of passion, tenacity and inspirational leadership in angel investing0 aDrawn to the Fire The role of passion tenacity and inspirational  c2016  a468-4840 v3110aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aMurnieks, Charles1 aCardon, Melissa, S.1 aSudek, Richard1 aWhite, Daniel1 aBrooks, Wade  u/biblio/drawn-fire-role-passion-tenacity-and-inspirational-leadership-angel-investing00547nas a2200157   4500008004100000245006200041210006100103260000900164653003200173100002200205700002000227700001900247700001800266700001700284856008800301       2015                        eng d00aAttracted by Fire: The role of passion in angel investing0 aAttracted by Fire The role of passion in angel investing  c201510aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aMurnieks, Charles1 aCardon, Melissa1 aSudek, Richard1 aWhite, Daniel1 aBrooks, Wade  u/biblio/attracted-fire-role-passion-angel-investing
