摘要

在充满活力的行业中，初创企业经常会调整自己的重点，这有助于它们形成清晰的战略定位，进而产生竞争优势。是转向还是坚持，是一个涉及创始人、公司和环境的实时、关键和多方面的决定，但人们对这种复杂的相互作用知之甚少。通过一项探索性案例研究，我们追踪了 Codigames 公司的创立、生存和成长过程，这是一家位于巴伦西亚的移动游戏初创企业，业绩优异。我们结合了创业领导力、决策和视角选择理论，对这家初创企业生命历程中的关键时刻进行了深入分析，为不确定性环境下的创业决策背景研究做出了贡献。

Back to the future: Entrepreneurial leadership and levelling up in the mobile-gaming sector

Start-ups in dynamic industries frequently pivot their focus, which can help them develop a clear strategic position and subsequently generate a competitive advantage. Whether to pivot or persevere becomes a real-time, critical, and multifaceted decision involving the founder, firm, and environment, but little is known about this complex interplay. Through an explorative case study, we tracked the founding, survival, and growth of Codigames, a high-performing Valencia-based mobile gaming start-up. We combine entrepreneurial leadership, decision-making, and perspective-taking theories to generate insight into critical moments in the start-up's lifepath, contributing to research on the contextualisation of entrepreneurship decision-making under uncertainty.

期刊介绍： Technology in Society is a global journal dedicated to fostering discourse at the crossroads of technological change and the social, economic, business, and philosophical transformation of our world. The journal aims to provide scholarly contributions that empower decision-makers to thoughtfully and intentionally navigate the decisions shaping this dynamic landscape. A common thread across these fields is the role of technology in society, influencing economic, political, and cultural dynamics. Scholarly work in Technology in Society delves into the social forces shaping technological decisions and the societal choices regarding technology use. This encompasses scholarly and theoretical approaches (history and philosophy of science and technology, technology forecasting, economic growth, and policy, ethics), applied approaches (business innovation, technology management, legal and engineering), and developmental perspectives (technology transfer, technology assessment, and economic development). Detailed information about the journal's aims and scope on specific topics can be found in Technology in Society Briefings, accessible via our Special Issues and Article Collections.
