Paperback. Investigating the Roles of Advisory Boards in German Technology-Based Startups Num Pages: 259 pages, 15 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: KJC; KJH; KJR. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 210 x 148 x 14. Weight in Grams: 344.
The author shows that advisory boards in technology-based startups have seven different roles and functions: control, advice, networking, signalling, capital provision, co-management, coordination. It is shown that venture capital investors try to influence the importance of these roles in favour of control, coordination and co-management. Contrary to this, the satisfaction of founders as well as advisory board members increases with a higher importance of advice, networking and signalling. This analysis provides both qualitative and quantitative empirical data on the usage of those boards in practice.
