资源有限的新企业需要决定如何分配其稀缺资源，以发展内部功能能力，以生存和发展。根据考夫曼公司对美国初创企业的纵向调查，我们探讨了新公司功能能力发展的宽与窄范围对业绩的影响，并表明能力发展的重点而不是广度有利于提高收入业绩，尽管财务和知识资源的可用性缓和了这种关系。研究创业型企业的能力发展有助于我们理解在时间和资源约束下竞争的任何企业的能力发展。
Resource-constrained new ventures need to decide how to allocate their scarce resources to develop internal functional capabilities in order to survive and grow. Drawing on the longitudinal Kauffman Firm Survey of U.S. start-ups, we explore the performance implications of broad versus narrow scope in new firms' functional capability development and show that focus rather than breadth in capability development is conducive to higher revenue performance, although financial and knowledge resource availability moderate this relationship. Studying capability development in entrepreneurial firms informs our understanding of capability development in any firm competing under time and resource constraints.
