Abstract
Purpose: The main aim of study was the identification of the significant factors that are perceived as positively and negatively influencing the maturation processes of project management in nascent and young innovative firms termed as start-ups. Design/methodology/approach: The study base on mixed-method approach. The research on factors driving and limiting project maturity in start-ups was performed using qualitative data collection methods. Additionally, quantitative approach and quantify the elements indicated by respondents were used to support study conclusion. Findings: In the studies it was confirmed that among the factors influencing the maturity of project management in start-ups very frequently the same factors were indicated as drivers and as barriers. Based on the research findings it was identified that start-ups can be divided into three groups with different characteristics which relates to proposed new division of barriers and drivers of project management development. Within the analyses identified factors were distinguished as directly and indirectly influencing project management processes. Research limitations/implications: Limitations of research relates to the number of interviews and the fact that the sample comprised the organizations located in the same region. The extension of the sample, inclusion of start-ups from diverse locations can add value to the results and confirm or extend some of discoveries. Practical implications: Identification of barriers (negative influence) and drivers (positive influence) of project management processes in start-ups. Division of the factors into those that have direct and those that have indirect influence of the advancements. Originality/value: The paper presents exploration of the peculiarities of advancing project management in young, new product-oriented organizations termed "start-ups". Results of interviews with IT start-up founders and stakeholders from start-up ecosystems (VCs, university incubators) used for studies and discussions enhanced understanding of factors affecting project management maturity.
