Abstract

Building on the institutional voids (IVs) and resource-dependence perspectives, this study examines the moderating impact of new business founders' political ties on the relationship between IVs and new venture performance (NVP). We developed and tested a unique model using data obtained from 309 new ventures in the MENA region, specifically Egypt. The results demonstrate that founders' political ties enhance firms' complementary assets and mitigate the negative effects of IVs on new venture performance in developing markets. The theoretical and practical implications concerning new venture performance in a developing market environment are examined.
