This study scrutinizes the mediating role of tangible–intangible resources between entrepreneurial orientation and new venture growth. We analyzed the data of 308 Pakistani manufacturing-SMEs through the AMOS. The results displayed that risk-taking and innovation significantly while proactive do not influence new venture growth. Risk-taking, innovativeness, and proactiveness significantly influence tangible–intangible resources. Tangible–intangible resource acquisition does not mediate between risk-taking and new venture growth; however, it partially mediates between innovativeness and new venture growth and fully mediates between proactiveness and new venture growth. This research recommends owners/managers of new ventures to emphasize entrepreneurial activities to access external resources for survival.

创业导向在有形和无形资源获取和新创企业成长中的作用

本研究审视了有形-无形资源在创业导向和新企业成长之间的中介作用。我们通过 AMOS 分析了 308 家巴基斯坦制造业中小企业的数据。结果表明，风险承担和创新显着，而积极主动不影响新企业的增长。冒险精神、创新精神和积极主动性显着影响有形-无形资源。有形-无形资源的获取在风险承担和新企业成长之间没有中介作用；然而，它在创新性和新创企业成长之间部分中介，在主动性和新创企业成长之间完全中介。这项研究建议新企业的所有者/经理强调创业活动，以获取外部资源以求生存。
