This paper investigates the influence of the economic integration exemplified by the Eurasian Economic Union on the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the Kazakhstan corporate sector. Using data collected from 204 small-, medium-, and large-sized Kazakh companies, the researchers analyzed the collected data with percentile. Findings of this study show that small- and medium-sized enterprises, especially in the tertiary sector of the Kazakh economy, are not that much affected by regional integration, whereas large firms have been significantly impacted. The originality of the paper is threefold. First, the research explores the entrepreneurial ecosystems in its focus on geographic location or digital technologies that came across mainly from the ICT space. This is becoming pervasive across mechanical systems, communications, infrastructure, and the built-up environment. Second, the originality of the paper lies in focusing on the entrepreneurial ecosystems' influence on the business processes by clearly understanding the regional, national, and international trends in different markets. Third, the paper is first of its kind to contribute an updated perspective on the entrepreneurial ecosystem's influence on economic integration to the policymakers of Kazakhstan. Policymakers will gain expertise on how to manage network effects while planning investment projects, as well as transactions, modes, and fixed nodes, acquisition, and greenfield investments.

Purpose: This research explores how domain passion in addition to entrepreneurial passion influences innovation strategy of venture, thus expanding the role of passion in choosing the path for innovation strategy. Passion is considered one of the most debated concepts in entrepreneurship, psychology, and marketing literatures, and yet a framework describing the integrated effect of entrepreneurial and domain passion on innovation strategy of venture is still lacking. Research data and methodology: Based on an inductive qualitative approach, the research addresses these issues via analyzing four unique cases of independently owned restaurants in Pakistan. The research focusses on the entrepreneurs who startup a venture out of a passion for a specific domain and have a passion for entrepreneurship either from start or it fuels up later during entrepreneurial process. Results: In the presence of both types of passions (Domain and entrepreneurial), the individuals will be inclined towards ambidexterity which differ in types from case to case according to different combinations and intensities (harmonious and obsessive) of passion. Conclusion: Research shows how innovation strategy of domain passion driven ventures is influenced by both entrepreneurial and domain passion, so to understand the role of passion in such cases integrated effect of both passions needs to be explored.

Elderly entrepreneurship is becoming increasingly important as a response to the impact of the aging population and the resulting demand on government support systems, as well as a means of ensuring long-term economic and social development. The purpose of this study is to investigate the elderly's entrepreneurial intentions in the hotel and tourism sector in Ma'anshan City, Eastern China. The researcher used an online survey of older people aged 50 to 64 in a tourism destination that is approaching an aging society stage to see if the Theory of Planned Behavior can explain the entrepreneurial ambitions of the elderly in the hospitality and tourism industry. There were 391 questionnaires gathered in all, 367 of which were valid. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The study reveals that personal attitudes toward entrepreneurial behavior and perceived behavior control are highly influenced by societal norms. It also shows that personal attitude and perceived behavior control are antecedents of the elderly's entrepreneurial intent in this particular industry. This research adds to the research on geriatric entrepreneurship in hospitality and tourism, as well as human resource development for seniors in China, helping to alleviate the country's aging demographic concerns.

Purpose - Along with emerging international entrepreneurship, there is a need for exploring the influencing mechanism of dual network embeddedness of the host country on international entrepreneurial performance. Drawing on network embeddedness theory and organizational improvisational theory, the present study constructs a theoretical model regarding the logic relationships between the dual network embeddedness of the host country, organizational improvisational capability, and international entrepreneurial performance. Design/methodology - Using a questionnaire survey, our study conducted data in two ways. The final research sample comprised 129 international new ventures. To test the hypotheses, a three-step mediation test method was conducted. Findings - Our empirical results suggested that both host-country social network embeddedness and industrial network embeddedness significantly affected the international entrepreneurial performance. Organizational improvisational capability significantly affected the international entrepreneurial performance. Third, organizational improvisational capability partially played mediating role in the relationship between the dual network embeddedness of the host country and international entrepreneurial performance. Originality/value - This study mainly concentrates on the two important types of host-country networks, host-country social network embeddedness and industrial network embeddedness, that may help international new ventures access the strategic resources necessary to support performance. Thus, it extends the existing network embeddedness theory and improvisational theory to encompass international entrepreneurship.

중소기업의 성장을 위해서는 자원의 획득과 활용이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 자원기반관점(RBV)을 기반으로 하여 중소기업에 대한 투자, 특히 벤처캐피탈을 중심으로 한 투자와 기업의 성과 간의 관계를 규명하고자 한다. 본 연구를 통해 벤처캐피탈이 투자한 기업과 그렇지 않은 기업이 성과의 차이를 나타낸다는 것을 확인하였다. 특히 투자한 벤처캐피탈의 수가 기업의 성과에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 것을 나타낸다. 흥미로운 것은, 벤처캐피탈이 아닌 상대에게서 받은 투자자수는 기업의 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다는 점이다. 본 연구는 중소기업이 제한된 자원 하에서 성장을 이루기 위해서는 다양한 벤처캐피탈로부터 투자를 받는 것이 바람직하다는 점을 시사한다.

역할 모델은 기업가정신 분야에서 오랫동안 많은 관심을 받아왔지만 대부분 연구는 서양 환경에서 주로 이루어져 왔다. 탐색적 수준에서 진행된 본 연구는 선행연구를 바탕으로 동양적 환경에서도 역할 모델의 역할의 유효성을 검증하는 것이 주목적이다. 이를 위해 역할 모델과 관련된 네 가지 가설을 수립하고 한국과 중국대학생들로 구성된 표본 440부를 이용하여 실증 분석하였다. 특히 본 연구는 그간 대학생들의 기업가정신 함양과 관련된 대부분 연구가 기업가정신교육의 효과를 살펴보는 것 위주로 진행되어 왔다는 점에 비추어 대학생들의 기업가정신 증진을 위한 역할 모델의 중요성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 검증결과 역할 모델은 한국과 중국대학생들의 창업자기효능감과 창업의도에 모두 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 또한 창업자기효능감은 대학생들의 창업의도에도 유의한 정(+)을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 역할 모델의 중요성에 대하여 서양 환경에서 검증된 연구결과들을 동양 환경에 적용하여 동일한 결과를 확보하였다는 점에 의의를 둘 수 있다. 또한 대학생들의 기업가정신 함양을 위해서는 기업가정신교육뿐만 아니라 역할 모델을 충분히 활용되어야 함을 보여주고 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 시사점으로 향후 좀 더 효과적인 대학생들의 기업가정신 함양을 위해서는 기업가정신교육과정에 역할 모델이 충분히 고려되어야 한다는 점을 제시하고 있다. 연구결과에 따른 이론적, 실무적 시사점을 제시해 두었다.
