Social Capital and Venture Development in a Low-Trust Environment
2014
Julia Ivy Joanne Larty Sarah Jack
This study investigates the relevance of social capital for entrepreneur-actor relationships in the development of sustainably operating ventures in the low-trust environment. The study reveals the following: (a) social capital can serve as an asset, access to opportunities, protection, or be a danger for ventures; (b) entrepreneurs are highly selective in whom they deal with; (c) their selectivity is framed with the “whom can I trust” and “whom I should know” justification; (d) they apply verification for continuing adjustment of the entrepreneur-actor relationship strategies to social and economic reality of venture operations. The study presents five strategies of entrepreneur-actor relationships in a low-trust environment.
