Abstract

Being suported by a mentor affects new venture survival by decreasing the liabiliy of newness. Traditional conceptions of the liabilities of newness come from institutional and ecological theories. The concept describes the lack of new roles, resources, economic and social capital (external liabilities) as well as the necessity for building internal coordination and routines (internal liabilites). A mentoring relationship is defined as an interpersonal relationship involving a more experienced professional and less experienced entrepreneur. For monitoring process, we focused on the outcomes for the protégé, for the mentor or for both. Proposing an integrated framework, we illustrate it studying two very different dyads. The finding show more support for the external liability than for the internal coordination argument
