创业网络是社会学与管理学交叉研究中的一个重要概念,是新企业突破资源瓶颈、获取异质性资源的重要来源和渠道,对提升新企业绩效具有重要作用,但现有研究结论尚存在一定分歧。针对这一问题,本文采用元分析方法,针对2002—2019年涵盖24个不同国家和地区的67项研究,探究了创业网络对新企业绩效的影响及其边界条件。研究结果显示:(1)创业网络能够促进新企业绩效提升;(2)从国家文化看,不确定性规避、集体主义、阳刚性文化越高,创业网络对新企业绩效的提升作用越显著,而权力距离越高,创业网络对新企业绩效的提升作用越低;(3)从国家发达程度看,发展中国家情境下创业网络对新企业绩效的提升作用更显著;(4)从企业年龄看,企业年龄越大,创业网络对新企业绩效的提升作用越显著。这表明创业网络与新企业绩效的关系在不同程度上受时间和空间的影响。本文丰富和细化了创业网络的现有研究成果,在一定程度上呈现了创业网络影响新企业绩效的全貌,获得了相对综合、可靠和科学的一般性结论,对于未来深化纵向研究和情境化研究具有启发意义,同时对于新企业构建和利用创业网络具有实践意义。
