Intellectual capital and business start‐up success
Abstract
While start‐up firms create a substantial economic impact on most economies, the failure rate of start‐up firms seems to remain high over time. Few authors have examined the influence of intellectual capital management on business performance, and when it has been examined, the focus has been on large, mature and public companies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the extent to which IC assets are associated with new firm survival and growth. Results from this study suggest that the human capital of the entrepreneur (i.e. education, business experience and level of motivation), organizational capital (i.e. firm capacity to adapt quickly to changes and the ability to implement successful strategies), and relational capital (i.e. development of productive business networks and an immediate access to critical stakeholders) are important intangible assets, which seem to be related positively to venture performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
