Abstract

Using fsQCA, this study explores how a venture’s strategy, as well as founding team knowledge diversity and demographic diversity interact to explain revenue growth of new ventures. Based on a longitudinal dataset containing 210 new ventures, we find that the effects of team diversity are complex su...
