This paper aims to dismantle the idea that sex per se explains entrepreneurial outcomes and demonstrates the influence of a gendered motivation on forging and shaping new venture teams, which is a disruptive choice affecting the future of start-ups.,A two-level research model is validated on data from the Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics II (PSED II), with a system of simultaneous equations. First, if team features affect the performance of new ventures is tested; then, the study investigates determinants of team features with a focus on sex and motivation of nascent entrepreneurs.,Human capital (HC) in terms of education and experience of team members consistently explains venture evolution only when considering the larger team of affiliates. The HC gathered by nascent entrepreneurs is not because of the simplistic sex condition, but rather to a gendered motivation related to the inferior need of achievement of women.,Limitations of discretionary scoring assigned to items of the PSED II survey are present, but unavoidable when processing qualitative data.,Women need to be (culturally) educated on how to re-balance their personal motivation towards entrepreneurship by fostering their incentives for achievement. Political and educational programmes could trigger success in the creation of new businesses led by women.,This paper contributes to the literature on nascent entrepreneurship, focusing on the entrepreneurial teams in the initial phase of business creation, and provides the basis for further studies aimed at eradicating the stereotypes of gender roles that lead women to self-exclusion and organizational errors.

新企业团队：性别，人力资本和动力

本文旨在消除以下观点：性别本身可以解释创业成果，并证明性别动机对组建和组建新的风险投资团队的影响，这是影响初创企业未来的颠覆性选择。一个两层研究模型使用联立方程系统对《企业动力学研究》 II（PSED II）的面板数据进行了验证。首先，测试团队特征是否影响新企业的绩效；然后，该研究调查了团队特征的决定因素，重点放在新生企业家的性别和动机上。人力资本（HC）就团队成员的教育和经验而言，始终仅在考虑较大的分支机构团队时才能解释风险的演变。新兴企业家收集的HC并不是因为性行为简单化，但是，这与性别上的动机有关，即女性的下等需求较低。，存在对PSED II调查项目分配的酌定得分限制，但是在处理定性数据时不可避免。.（在文化上）必须对妇女进行教育通过促进成就的动机来重新平衡他们对创业的个人动机。政治和教育计划可能会触发由女性领导的新企业的成功创建。，本文为新生创业提供了文献资料，着重于创业初期的创业团队，并为进一步研究奠定了基础消除导致妇女自我排斥和组织错误的性别角色定型观念。
