Abstract

This is an exploratory insight into the profile and prospects of growth and success attached to one category of firms, known as "New Technology Based Firms (NTBFs), the socalled high-tech and innovative new ventures. With this study we are willing to furnish a new methodological tool instrumental to position any firm characterised by being relatively recent and specialising in high-tech fields or at least, in activities with large scope for innovation. So, we intend to make a methodological contribution to theory in the entrepreneurship field, through an empirical exercise.Analysis of our empirically based data leads us to a new Matrix we call Market-Technology-Entrepreneurial Matrix, whose 8 three-dimensional quadrants serve to classify high- tech new ventures by performance. A Factorial Analysis coupled with a Discriminate Analysis are the statistical tools employed in obtaining the M-T-E Matrix and incorporating predictive capacity to it. El presente estudio, de carácter exploratorio, es una incursión en torno al perfil y perspectivas decrecimiento y éxito, asociados a una categoría de empresas conocidas como New TechnologyBased Firms (NTBFs), las cuales desarrollan actividades altamente innovadoras y habitualmentepertenecientes a sectores de tecnología avanzada. Nuestro propósito radica en desarrollar una nuevaherramienta metodológica que resulte útil para posicionar competitivamente, de manera aproximada,a cualquier compañía con el perfil NTBF: reciente, innovadora e intensiva en tecnologías avanzadas.Tras aplicar la técnica estadística del análisis factorial, hemos obtenido una Matriz que denominamosMatriz Mercado-Tecnología-Emprendedor, cuyos 8 cuadrantes tridimensionales posicionan lascompañías high-tech según sus fortalezas y debilidades y perspectivas de competitividad.Finalmente, mediante el empleo de la técnica estadística del análisis discriminante, hemos podidoincorporar capacidad predictiva a la Matriz.
