The two essays in this dissertation investigate how entrepreneurial capabilities are developed in intra- and inter-organizational relationships. Entrepreneurial capabilities are central to firms’ survival and performance. However, the role of various forms of relationships in the development and deployment of entrepreneurial capabilities remains understudied. The constellation of the two essays in this dissertation aims to offer insights about the impact of these relationships and the potential areas for future research. I investigate various aspects of entrepreneurial capabilities, such as value creation, value capture, and innovativeness. The first essay is an empirical investigation of the impact of alliances, as a form of inter-organizational relationship, on firms’ capabilities to create and capture value and improve performance. The second essay empirically examines the interplay between social capital, as a byproduct of intra-organizational relationships, and causal entrepreneurial process on innovativeness in new ventures. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2020. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
