Resumen

¿La disponibilidad de recursos humanos y sociales condiciona el rendimiento de las nuevas empresas tecnológicas? ¿Y la estrategia tecnológica elegida por el emprendedor para competir en el mercado? Este estudio encuentra que ni una ni la otra, si se consideran de forma aislada. Los resultados muestran que el rendimiento de la empresa tecnológica depende de la medida en que los recursos del emprendedor permiten ejecutar la estrategia tecnológica elegida o, en otras palabras, del ajuste entre los recursos y la estrategia. Los autores llegan a esta conclusión después de estudiar una muestra de 175 empresas tecnológicas españolas jóvenes.

Does the availability of human and social resources condition a new technology-based venture’s performance? And the technology strategy chosen by the entrepreneur to compete in the market place? This study found out that neither one nor the other, if they are considered in isolation. Results show that the technology-based venture’s performance depends on how well the entrepreneur’s resources allow the chosen technology strategy to be executed, in other words, the fit between the resources and the strategy. The authors reach this conclusion after studying a sample of 175 Spanish new technology-based ventures.
