Abstract

Initial public offering (IPO) is a transformational event in the evolution of entrepreneurial firms. However, past research has not carefully examined the change IPO brought to the new ventures. This paper studies the changes in the entrepreneurial firm search routines before and after IPO. To solve the conflict between the inertia view and the adaptation view of the routine, we propose that whether firm search routine will be transformed by IPO depending on a set of imprinting factors and transformational factors. Based on behavioral theory and agency theory, we hypothesize founder status and past success are imprinting factor
