This article explores existing literature related to reducing risk and enhancing performance in the biotechnology industry, offering key managerial considerations.

The article concludes by presenting a conceptual model of the literature and recommends that biotechnology executives create the cultures, perspectives, and behaviors that support the identified strategic orientations.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125707226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2019 the country’s unemployment rate reached its peak since 2006. During crises self-employment is considered more often, and higher rates of start-ups creating high-skilled labor could counter Argentina’s innovation gap. The during-crisis students are more necessity-driven to business creation than their stronger opportunity-driven pre-crisis counterparts. Students as potential founders of innovative start-ups require demand-oriented entrepreneurship support at their universities, which enables continuous individual learning processes creating fundamental entrepreneurial qualifications and facilitating business opportunity recognition and assessment. Currently, a promising starting point is inciting the students’ pull motives to business creation.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129809530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined 142 articles published in 29 international journals and identified nine main research themes (that is, Innovation Type, Innovation Practices, Technology Issues, Entrepreneurial Aspects, International Strategy, Intercultural Factors, Internal Organizational Mechanisms, External Relationships Governance, and National Systems). The identification of the main themes derived from this study can help cross-cultural and innovation scholars focus their attention on both the main themes, as well as understudied elements of this relationship. In addition, we outline some promising avenues for the application of cross-cultural perspective to innovation studies, such as examining the relationship between national culture and innovation at the individual level of analysis, including a broader set of cultural variables, and investigating the impact of national culture at the different stages of the innovation process.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117203285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on qualitative empirical research and 23 semistructured interviews conducted with women entrepreneurs supported by two support structures (one mixed and the other gendered), our results identify the major contribution of entrepreneurial support to the financing trajectories of women entrepreneurs. Our results present the good practices of these structures in the support and mentoring of women in terms of financing and allow us to question the contribution of gendered and nongendered support. Thanks to these results, we also present recommendations for practitioners; that is, public authorities and actors in the entrepreneurial ecosystem that accompany and support women entrepreneurs.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122295046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The interpretative phenomenological qualitative approach was adopted in the cross-sectional survey. Two hundred participants drawn from SMEs completed the questionnaire containing unstructured statements. Data were analyzed using NVivo. The study identified eight leadership behaviors that created positive work experiences for employees, and three negative behaviors that exacerbated employee stress levels. Employees would rather work remotely post-COVID to achieve work–life balance and reduce transportation costs. The study showed that the post-COVID era will be characterized by a hybrid work style, hence the results obtained in the COVID-19 era are necessary for the post-COVID recovery of SMEs where leveraging organizational collective intelligence is critical. These findings will help SMEs factor employees’ expectations into their post-COVID recovery process.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116900486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Small business owners play a crucial role in acquiring new knowledge, making decisions, and, consequently, initiating changes in their companies. This study investigates the role of small business owners’ mindsets and perspectives in using business consulting services. Through different action research cycles, this study tries to gain a shared understanding of the nature of the relationship between business consulting services and small business owners. In this regard, 16 small business owners in different industries, such as healthcare, manufacturing, food, engineering, accounting, and construction, were interviewed in person. The results of this study show that, although a small business owner’s mindset is crucial in accepting business consulting advice, it will not necessarily lead to implementing the consultant’s advice and getting the desired results. Accordingly, other important behavioral factors, such as intrinsic motivation, goal setting, social support, and removing implementing obstacles, must also be analyzed.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115982958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, this study aimed to learn about Korean immigrant entrepreneurship in Australia and to identify gaps in knowledge on the causes, processes, and impacts of Korean immigrant entrepreneurship on Australian society and communities. It was found that the motivations and challenges encountered by the Korean entrepreneurs in Australia are consistent with previous studies on immigrant entrepreneurship. There was clear evidence of enclaves formed by Korean immigrant entrepreneurs in Australia. Twenty years of longitudinal data show that the survival ratio of Korean immigrant entrepreneurship is higher than those of mainstream businesses. However, the lack of direct governmental supports or policies hinders their growth potential and further contributions to the wider Australian society and communities.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114935656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We sampled, explored, and analyzed the most recent studies that linked COVID-19 to business and finance. We identified two mitigations, which had strong effects on financial inclusion but had been neglected: lockdown and social distancing. We used lockdown and social distancing to conceptualize COVID-19, and developed two theoretical nexuses among COVID-19 and financial inclusion, and COVID-19 and government policy interventions. We explored each of the nexuses. First, we described the extent of lockdown and social distancing, financial inclusion, and government policy interventions. Second, we compared these nexuses in both the Lango and Kigezi subregions, and explained the significance of the interventions. Third, we used beta coefficients to quantify the effects of COVID-19 on financial inclusion. We provide a solid foundation for compulsive online banking in developing countries.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123427209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
