This study aims to investigate the effect of financier selection options over the optimal actions of entrepreneurs in a Markov modulated setting. In this paper, we model the opportunities for start-up entrepreneurs using a dynamic programming approach. We assume that the firm follows a two-state Markov Chain process with states defined as traditional and innovative. The entrepreneur decides on the effort level and the funding agent at the early stage of the development. We analyze how the investor decisions evolve until the mature stage and how different investors affect the development. We verify the model parameters using OECD statistics and the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor survey for different countries. We conclude that survival first entrepreneurs are prudent in taking growth or innovative actions. However, they become more aggressive if they also prioritize expected wealth, or if they are financed by experienced venture capitals.

ABSTRACT Purpose: Innovation is an indispensable element of efficiency, profitability, competitiveness and sustainability. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the activities of innovative enterprises on a sectoral basis. Methodology: An integrated Multi-Criteria Decision Making Approach is used. Criterion weights are calculated with the Entropy method, and MABAC method is preferred for evaluating the activities of the sectors within the scope of innovation. Findings: It is determined that the most important criterion in evaluating innovation activities is the innovation of goods. The sector that is at the forefront is found to be wholesale trade. Practical Implications: The causes of these deficiencies in sectors that are found to be weak in terms of innovation can be examined and improvement suggestions can be developed. Originality: This study provides an important contribution to the literature as it is the first study based on the methodology based on the updates made in the Oslo Guide in 2018 in the evaluation of innovative activities.
