Abstract:

Building on entrepreneurial financeand trust theory, this paper distinguishes between lead and follow-oninvestors, and explores how pledges and follow-on investment decisions are maderespectively. Using extensive hand-collected lifespan data from multiplesources, including archival documents, campaign-level evidence, in-depthinterviews and in-site observations, I find that lead investors who are likelyprofessional investors rely on competence trust built through the selective andobservable information displayed in the campaign documents to make thescreening decisions. The further building of competent and relational trustthrough physical interacting with entrepreneurs, helping make a sense ofcooperative manners and figure out the relationship between attributes ofentrepreneurs and the unobservable, is fundamental for lead investors to maketheir pledge. For follow-on investors who are likely non-professionals, a pledgeby knowledgeable lead investor encourage them to interpret information aboutentrepreneurs and the underlying idea for a start-up more positively, and tore-assures their rationale for investing. We find on average the number ofinvestors investing in a venture being rather small and the strategic changesfrom equity crowdfunding to syndicate funding in the investor-led model.
