New research finds close ties to investors can lead founders to make more conservative venture growth decisions.
The research introduces the concept of a "funding-source-induced bias," which is a bias in entrepreneurial decision making stemming from an entrepreneur's relationship with an investor.
Entrepreneurs who take funding from close family and friends are more likely to pursue lower-risk growth options to avoid such anticipated guilt.
