Abstract

Small micro-enterprise, as an important force in scientific and technological innovation, has an essential strategic significance on maintaining steady and rapid economic development. This paper, taking the small micro-enterprise as the target group, combines both theoretical exploration and demonstration analysis to study the entrepreneurial opportunities recognition from the perspective of social capital. The small micro-enterprises’ social capital contains structural dimension, relational dimension and cognitive dimension, and the entrepreneurial performance includes survival and growth performance. In this paper, SPSS20.0 and AMOS19.0 are used to conduct reliability analysis, structure equation modelling and hypothesis test. Results from the survey are as follows: Structural and relational dimension of social capital has a significantly positive impact on entrepreneurial performance while the positive influence of cognitive dimension on growth performance is not significant. In the end, this study puts forward some proposals in order to achieve the growth of enterprise value and entrepreneurial performance.
