Corporate entrepreneurship and market performance: an empirical study in China
Abstract
Purpose
This paper reviews literature of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) and explores the relationship between CE and market performance in China by taking a disaggregated approach after developing a reliable and valid scale of CE.
Design/methodology/approach
The empirical paper is based on questionnaire survey and statistical analysis.
Findings
This paper identifies the key dimensions of CE and finds that each dimension exerts differentiated impacts on market performance of firms in China.
Originality/value
Nowadays, more and more studies have been conducted on entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial orientation, intrapreneurship or CE. However, no agreement has been reached about the key dimensions of CE and much less is know about the generalizability of related research findings in emerging economies. This paper is intended to bridge these gaps.
