摘要

目标驱动型企业家将他们的企业视为在世界上产生切实和积极影响的工具，利润是实现这一使命的关键推动力。这项研究调查了来自全球创业观察的50个国家的30,000名新老企业家，研究了动机和利他主义如何影响产品/服务创新以及新技术或新流程的采用。利用商业和企业家目标塑造商业动机的概念框架，然后驱动创新等战略决策，分析表明，目的驱动的企业家精神旨在产生更广泛的市场影响，并对产品/服务创新和新技术或流程的实施产生积极影响。值得注意的是，民族利他主义负向调节目标与创新之间的联系。这一发现得到了考虑文化维度的扩大样本的进一步支持。因此，在利他主义较少的社会中，决策者应该为有影响力的企业家提供更大的支持，因为有更大的市场机会来创新解决社会和环境问题的办法。

Purpose-driven entrepreneurship and innovation: the moderating effect of altruism

Purpose-driven entrepreneurs see their businesses as a vehicle for making a tangible and positive difference in the world, with profit serving as a crucial enabler of that mission. This study of 30,000 new and established entrepreneurs across 50 countries from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor examines how motivation and altruism influence product/service innovation and the adoption of new technologies or processes. Utilizing a conceptual framework where business and entrepreneur objectives shape business motivations, which then drive strategic decisions like innovation, the analysis reveals that purpose-driven entrepreneurship aims for broader market impact and positively affects both product/service innovation and the implementation of new technologies or processes. Notably, national altruism negatively moderates the link between purpose and innovation. This finding is further supported by an expanded sample considering cultural dimensions. Therefore, in less altruistic societies, policymakers should provide greater support to impactful entrepreneurs due to greater market opportunities to innovate solutions to social and environmental problems.
