| Abstract: | Organisational growth is explored in technology-based ventures. Characteristics of the founding top-management team, strategy, and environment are related to the sales growth of newly founded USA semiconductor firms. There are significant main and interaction effects for the founding top-management team and market stage on firm growth. In contrast, the technical innovation of firm strategy and marketplace competition are not significant. Finally, the founding top-management team and market-stage effects are increasingly large over time. The results indicate that both environmental determinism and strategic choice operate on young firms. |
