With data from 184 new ventures in China's high technology industries, we found that new venture strategies play differential roles in dealing with different environmental dimensions to affect performance. In particular, our results suggest that marketing differentiation plays a significant role in mediating the positive effect of perceived industry growth on performance for opportunity exploration. Market breadth and marketing alliance significantly moderate the negative impact of environmental hostility on performance. Product innovation plays both mediating and moderating roles in the environment-performance relationship. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Vol. 2000, No. 1 Permissions Metrics in the past 12 months History Published online 13 December 2017 Published in print 1 August 2000 InformationCopyright of Academy of Management Journal is the property of Academy of Management and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites or posted to a listserv without the copyright holder’s express written permission.
