“…Previous sport entrepreneurship studies typically measure EO as a three-dimensional construct (e.g. Escamilla-Fajardo et al, 2020;Hammerschmidt et al, 2019;Kraus et al, 2019;Núñez-Pomar et al, 2020). Our finding of one-dimensional EO construct supports the finding of Rauch et al (2009) that many EO studies did not apply identical EO dimensions owing to the study context.…”

“…Although coopetition is represented in sport entrepreneurship models (see Crick & Crick, 2016;Hammerschmidt et al, 2019), this assumption of extending sport practices into one's coopetition (a form of performance) in business has not been empirically tested. By contrast, entrepreneurial orientation (EO) is one suggested performance construct in the sport entrepreneurship field (Escamilla-Fajardo et al, 2020;Nuñez-Pomar et al, 2016;Núñez-Pomar et al, 2020;Radaelli et al, 2018;Ratten, 2015). The construct of EO originates in strategic management research (Miller, 1983) and its potential relationship with coopetition in sports remains to be empirically established.…”

Research question: Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) is one of the performance measurements in the research on sport entrepreneurship. Another measure of performance studied is coopetition (simultaneous collaboration and competition). This study tested how EO might affect coopetition. Research methods: In total, 106 sport entrepreneurs from the United States participated in a survey. This survey included an experiment measuring participants' coopetition tendency (the dependent variable) and EO (the independent variable). Results and findings: EO affected coopetition. This relationship was negative among sport entrepreneurs who reported training with their potential competitors and positive among sport entrepreneurs who did not report such training. Implications: EO-behaviors (developing sport products, services, techniques, equipment, and practices) can encourage sport entrepreneurs towards coopetition. This might especially be the case for sport entrepreneurs who use their skills acquired from sports that they train or trained alone.

“…Studies using a dual methodological approach, such as the one carried out in this study, are even scarcer. In some examples of the literature, this varied approach allowed us to see that variables that seem not to have a relevant role in one approach are relevant in others; therefore, it is appropriate to carry out analyses from different methodological perspectives, as has been done in other studies on entrepreneurial orientation [23,85,86].…”

“…"The concern about innovation and entrepreneurship has recently provided the sports environment with a new challenge to confront its reality, threats and shortcomings, and to identify opportunities and redesign its future"( [23], p. 982). In this context, entrepreneurial orientation has been widely accepted as a construct that defines and measures attitudes related to entrepreneurship and innovation [4,5].…”

Entrepreneurial orientation and passion for work have been widely studied due to their effects on the behaviour and attitude of management teams in the short- and long-term. However, despite the influences of these variables on the sustainability and survival of an entity, there is a gap when considering the effects of these two performance variables in sports organisations. Therefore, the main objectives of this study were to understand the influences of entrepreneurial orientation and passion for work on service quality and sporting performance. To this end, 199 Spanish non-profit sports clubs were analysed using instruments with good psychometric properties. Data analysis was carried out using two complementary methodologies: hierarchical regression models and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. The findings show that innovation and risk-taking influence performance variables and that the inclusion of passion for work significantly increases the explanatory capacity of the model. On the other hand, it was also observed that entrepreneurial orientation dimensions and passion for work are part of the combination that allows the expected result to be explored to a greater extent. Theoretical and practical implications were drawn from these findings, which can be used to improve the economic and social sustainability of sport organisations. The study also provides useful information for managers and directors of sport organisations.

The literature is consistent in stating that innovation helps in improving the performance of nonprofit organizations (NPOs), highlighting how there remains the scope for further research designed to better understand the dimension supporting social innovation. Through the application of the Tidd and Bessant model, which reflects an important contribution to this specific sector, this study seeks to meet a shortcoming in analyzing just which innovation management factors influence the performance of NPOs. To this end, we applied a quantitative methodology based on a survey made of Portuguese NPOs that received a total of 135 valid responses. Based upon the application of multiple linear regression models, this study concludes that there are five innovation management models with a positive impact on NPO performance levels. In terms of the implications, these results, consistent with earlier research of a different nature, strengthen the idea that private business sector methods may undergo successful adaptation to the social sector and assist such entities to implement measures that offset their organizational, and consequent financial, weaknesses.
