Abstract

This dissertation examines firms’ entrepreneurial investments in anticipation of entry into a nascent industry. In the first essay, I study the intertwined processes of firm-level economic value capture and industry-level ecosystem formation that underpin incubation of nascent industries. The second essay focuses on the capability antecedents of a firm entry into a nascent industry and makes a distinction between a firm’s pre-entry and pre-investment capabilities. In the third essay, I discuss the nature of the capability reconfiguration efforts that are undertaken by firms in anticipation of entry into nascent industries and their differential nature given firms’ historical antecedents.

Keywords: Entrepreneurial Entry, Nascent Industries, Capability Reconfiguration
