Based on resource conservation theory (RCT), we examine the role of two types of family support – emotional and instrumental support – in the work-family balance and subjective well-being of small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) owners. Using a sample of French SME owners, our results show that work-family balance mediates the relationship between family support and the subjective well-being of SME owners. Surprisingly, while emotional support has a positive association, instrumental support has a negative association with SME owners’ subjective well-being via work-family balance. We provide a theoretical explanation by integrating the ROC theory with the threat to self-esteem model, and offer practical implications of this study

Entrepreneurial ecosystems in France and Norway

This research compares student entrepreneurial ecosystems in France and Norway, focusing on how students access support, resources, and networks. In France, the system is centralized, driven by key actors like Student Hubs for Innovation, Transfer and Entrepreneurship, called PEPITE. In Norway, it is open and collaborative, with strong student associations and community ties. Using interviews and social network analysis, I explored the access and the circulation of information among actors in student entrepreneurial ecosystems. The results reveal different paths to innovation shaped by culture, policy, and education. Supporting student entrepreneurship is not just about funding or training. It’s about building inclusive ecosystems where students, mentors, and institutions work together.

Women in family business boards: impact and legacy

The benefit of gender diversity on the corporate boards of family firms (FFs) continues to receive growing interest. In this paper, we examine the goals of women who hold a position on the board of directors at FFs. Goal setting has been used to identify what they want to accomplish here. How do they make a difference? This question is answered through the theoretical lens of socio- emotional wealth (SEW) and goal setting. We contribute to the literature supporting gender-diverse board composition, emphasizing the goals associated with women on FF boards, and highlighting their role in family business succession. Drawing on SEW and goal setting theory, this study examines how women’s goals influence succession. Driven by the research question, our data bring together three categories of goals pursued by women in the boardroom.

What is the Initial Coin Offering?

An Initial Coin Offering (ICO) is a modern fundraising method for start-ups, similar to crowdfunding but using digital tokens instead of traditional cash or rewards. Investors purchase these tokens, which they can later use to buy the product or resell for potential profit. ICOs provide entrepreneurs with a global financing opportunity while offering investors early access to innovative projects. Overall, ICOs connect entrepreneurship, finance, and blockchain technology, making them a revolutionary tool for start-up funding.

The role of psychological entrepreneurial support in women-only incubators

This article explores the contribution of psychological entrepreneurial support, based on same-gender group mentoring, to the strengthening of female entrepreneurial intention in the specific context of a women-only incubator. According to the literature on female entrepreneurship, women entrepreneurs are faced with specific challenges that influence their entrepreneurial intention such as a lack of self-confidence, caused by gender stereotypes, and conflict between family life and entrepreneurial career. More precisely, our research aims to determine how psychological entrepreneurial support is implemented in the incubation process to overcome these specific challenges, and the mechanisms for strengthening female entrepreneurial intention analyzed at both intrapersonal and interpersonal levels. We discuss the implications of our findings on related research into business incubators and the design of mentoring programs adapted to the needs of women entrepreneurs.
