Exploring First Time Nascent Entrepreneurs On Going Entrepreneurial Opportunity Recognition

"Extant literature lacks the integrative theory of first-time (pure) nascent entrepreneurs' ongoing opportunity recognition. There is an academic consensus that the investigation of ongoing opportunity recognition may provide new insights into entrepreneurs' behaviours and cognitive processes, i.e. what they do and how they do it. This study has responded to this knowledge gap by addressing the following research question: how do pre-incubator supported nascent entrepreneurs recognise entrepreneurial opportunities? The objectives of this study were: (1) to explore the process by which they come up with opportunity ideas; (2) to explore behavioural actions that shape opportunity ideas into opportunities; (3) to understand the role of the pre-incubator on their cognitive and behavioural process; and (4) to provide recommendations for effective opportunity-recognition practice. A single qualitative case study was adopted for the study of 13 lead graduates who were supported through the pre-incubator’s business start-up programme. Data were collected through semi-structured interview, mind-mapping and participants observation, and analysed by adopting an inductive thematic analysis method. Findings show that nascent entrepreneurs’ opportunity recognition comprises two discreet, interrelated components: opportunity awareness and opportunity search. Opportunity awareness is an intentional process by which they translate their experiential problems and perceived gaps into demand- or supply-driven opportunity ideas. It drives their opportunity search behaviour. They rely on various social networks to test the veracity of their opportunity ideas and search for opportunity-related information. They prioritise their social network reliance according to their social relationships. This behaviour is guided by their emotional attachment to opportunities. It is found that pre-incubator managers moderate their emotional attachment and subsequent search behaviours. As they (nascent entrepreneurs) rely on various social networks, their confirmation bias mediates opportunity recognition belief reinforcement and the input factors provided by social network members. The findings are significant to pre-incubator managers. They provide revelatory insights into their supported nascent entrepreneurs’ emotions, behaviours, and cognition in relation to opportunity recognition. This study also makes noteworthy contributions to entrepreneurship literature by providing new theoretical insights into the opportunity recognition of first-time (pure) nascent entrepreneurs." -- Abstract.

Opportunity recognition is the first nascent step towards entrepreneurship and in high tech sector it differs due to the tacit knowledge component. The purpose of this case is to complement existing theories and demonstrate how entrepreneur's internal and external motivators have an impact on diagnosis and assessment of informational cues present in the external environment. This case describes how an entrepreneur assesses opportunity-related information in order to arrive at a decision while connecting them via innovative practices. It also demonstrates how strategic business alliances help new ventures to constantly meet continuous innovation pressure and how dynamic customization and social network acts as a key driving force behind venture creation. RTAP is a small time engineering service provider, seeded by its founder when Indian economy moved towards liberalization. The founding members were first generation entrepreneurs without any prior start-up experience. The case attempts to examine the antecedents of, and the relationships between, entrepreneurial opportunity recognition, individual-level motivation and innovation performance, strategic alliances and social networking.

The increasing use of social network websites may signal a change in the way the next generation of entrepreneurs identify entrepreneurial ideas. An important part of the entrepreneurship literature emphasizes how vital the use of social networks is to entrepreneurial idea identification, opportunity recognition, and ultimately new venture creation. The explosive growth of these online social networking sites provides millions with the ability to communicate more information to a larger group of people with greater frequency than existed in the past. The focus of this study was to determine whether the use of online social networks influences the idea identification process differently than traditional "offline" social networks. Results are based on surveys collected from 282 students from nine different community colleges in the state of Maryland. The results from this dissertation show that the use of online social network websites significantly increases the number of contacts, business contacts, weak ties, and strong ties that nascent entrepreneurs communicate with. In addition, results show that nascent entrepreneurs using online social network websites not only exchange more information with their contacts, but identify more entrepreneurial ideas than their counterparts that do not use online social network websites. The practical and theoretical implications of this research are discussed and future research directions are presented.-- Abstract.
