“…Several studies have applied various non-financial and financial performance measures for startups. However, few studies used employment and market performance dimensions such as market share and customer satisfaction as non-financial performance measures (Fritsch and Schindele, 2011; Ahmadi and O'Cass, 2016; Hendijani Fard and Seyyed Amiri, 2018; Lovgren et al , 2019) and financial performance measure as sales growth (Delmar and Shane, 2006; Butler et al , 2016; Lee, 2020). As a result, we anticipate more research examining the effects of internal and external variables on employment and other less explored outcomes.…”

“…The most frequently used non-financial performance measures are survival (Bates, 1998; Goldfarb et al , 2007; Amezcua et al , 2013; Mas-Verdú et al , 2015; Wamba et al , 2017; Acheampong, 2018; Pajunen and Järvinen, 2018; Adams et al , 2019), growth (Audretsch and Mahmood, 1994; Cressy, 1996; Vanderstraeten et al , 2016; Haeussler et al , 2019; Ferrucci et al , 2021), employment (Bosma et al , 2004; Fritsch and Schindele, 2011; Butler et al , 2016; Lovgren et al , 2019), innovation (Baker and Sinkula, 2009; Rezvani and Fathollahzadeh, 2020), market share (Hendijani Fard and Seyyed Amiri, 2018; Sarwoko and Nurfarida, 2021), customer satisfaction (Ahmadi and O'Cass, 2016; Hendijani Fard and Seyyed Amiri, 2018) and EM dimensions such as EM behaviours, degree of EM and frequency of EM (Kilenthong et al , 2016; Mahrous et al , 2020). Thus, non-financial performance used in the literature can be classified into operation-oriented measures, such as survival, growth, innovation and productivity and customer-oriented measures, such as market share and customer satisfaction.…”

“…The financial measures were used in a limited number of studies. Among the financial performance measures primarily used measures were sales (Delmar and Shane, 2006; Wong and Ellis, 2007; Fairlie and Robb, 2009; Kumar et al , 2011; Butler et al , 2016; Hendijani Fard and Seyyed Amiri, 2018; Lovgren et al , 2019), sales growth (Wong and Ellis, 2007; Mahrous et al , 2020), profitability (Bosma et al , 2004; Fairlie and Robb, 2009), return on assets (Wong and Ellis, 2007; Hendijani Fard and Seyyed Amiri, 2018) and income of the firm (Butler et al , 2016).…”

“…The firm’s survival is an emerging research domain that has been practically applicable globally (Parry et al , 2012; Ebert et al , 2019; Woehler and Ernst, 2023). It is a domain that has been used in studies related to organisational performance and is associated with post-entry performance (Korunka et al , 2010; Lukeš et al , 2019; Lovgren et al , 2019). Survival is a qualitative measurement and indicates whether the firm is still active during the observation period and whether there is no change in firm ownership (Åstebro and Bernhardt, 2003; Basile et al , 2017; Yang et al , 2017; Honjo and Kato, 2019; Caliendo et al , 2020).…”

Purpose This paper aims to provide a brief review of the work on startup survival and a conceptual framework of factors influencing a startup firm’s survival. In addition, it lists significant gaps and recommends avenues for future research. Design/methodology/approach This paper conducted a systematic literature review of peer-reviewed journal articles indexed in Scopus, Web of Science and EBSCO databases using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A total of 140 articles published in 72 journals between 1993 and 2021 were considered for the review. Findings The comprehensive review revealed that most of the studies have applied a single theoretical lens and have taken place in advanced economies, with a narrow focus on emerging economies. Empirical research has prominently applied regression-based models to analyse the relationship between the antecedents and the outcomes. Internal resources such as human capital, financial capital and physical capital and non-financial performance measures such as survival, growth and employment are the studies’ prominently used antecedents and outcome variables. However, a limited number of studies have used mechanisms of mediation and moderation. Originality/value Despite the substantial scientific and practical discussion on startup survival, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, no comprehensive review has been undertaken to date, which provides a systematic and comprehensive compilation of the knowledge on the topic. This study aims to develop a unique landscape of scientific advancement by methodically reviewing, categorising and synthesising the current body of knowledge on the topic.

“…La asistencia de estos programas evita el lanzamiento de ideas comerciales insostenibles, mejora la supervivencia de las empresas lanzadas y desarrolla la legitimidad percibida de los empresarios ante los socios comerciales. Además, los resultados implican que los PEA específicos son un enfoque político viable para promover la actividad empresarial en la industria agroalimentaria y que pueden ser especialmente adecuados para ayudar a los empresarios incipientes [19]. La producción local de alimentos es significativa no solo para un solo productor, sino también para el consumidor y, finalmente, para toda la región.…”

The culture of entrepreneurship and innovation are synergistic elements that accompany business success at all levels, which have assumed a relevant role in the food industry, considered one of the sectors with contributions in health, nutrition and food worldwide. In this review article, the main cases and entrepreneurship factors were analyzed, as well as the most relevant innovation models in the global agri-food industry, for which a literary review was carried out, filtering and selecting 50 scientific articles published from 2017 to 2021. Subsequently, they were classified into subtopics according to the information obtained, facilitating their understanding and specific analysis. Finally, it is concluded that the main contributions to knowledge in entrepreneurship and innovation are focused on sustainable and profitable proposals in political, socio-cultural, environmental and technological fields; as well as validation procedures, techniques and instruments for its application in the food industry.We also provide recommendations for future research directions in the food sector.
