- Abstract
Start-ups require external investment to accelerate growth and scale up their businesses. Many works of literature discussed the types of investors and their influence on start-up innovation performance. However, previous literature neglected the influence of the regional characteristics of each start-up. This regional characteristic is significant as a moderating factor for start-ups with high dependency on technologies because of the protection of property rights. To fill the gap, this study investigated the impact of investor type on innovation performance by distinguishing regional characteristics as an essential factor in improving start-ups’ innovation performance. In measuring the innovation performance of a start-up, this study used intellectual property rights that consisted of a number of effective patent and trademark registered. From the Crunchbase database, this study employed 5,172 enterprise-level data of start-ups. Using systematic random sampling, 358 data were acquired to test the hypotheses. The regression results showed that the investor type (incubator, accelerator, angel, and venture capital) significantly promoted innovative performance. In addition, the result showed a more significant impact on the regional characteristic with higher protection of property rights.
