Relocation to Get Venture Capital: A Resource Dependence Perspective
Using a resource dependence perspective, we theorize and show that non-venture-capital-backed ventures founded in U.S. states with a lower availability of venture capital (VC) are more likely to relocate to California (CA) or Massachusetts (MA)—the two VC-richest states—compared to ventures founded in states with a greater availability of VC. Moreover, controlling for self-selection, ventures that relocate to CA or MA subsequently have a greater probability of attracting initial VC compared to ventures that stay in their home state. We discuss the implications for theory, future research, and practice

There are already indications that the hitherto relatively closed banks with a dominant market position are beginning to transform into open ecosystem players that embrace digital innovation

Five years of the Vlerick Energy Centre. An overview of results and lessons learned
An overview of results and lessons learned from five years of the Vlerick Energy Centre. Energy concerns all of us. Being intertwined with the debate on decarbonisation and climate change, energy is a potentially hot topic. Two extreme positions have attracted significant media coverage during the past year. At one end of the spectrum are those people who feel the transition cannot happen fast enough, engaging in climate protests inspired by Greta Thunberg. At the other end are the Gilets Jaunes, applying the brakes because they believe, on the contrary, that things are moving too fast and life has become too expensive
