This study provides evidence on how venture capital (VC) investment affects startup firms’ sustainable growth and performance. Despite the rich and abundant research on the relationship between VC investment and startup performance, there is no clear evidence about the contribution of VC investment on the performance and market value of invested firms. In order to accurately measure the impact of VC investment, this study explored how VC investment at each stage of growth affects a startup’s sustainable growth and performance. Based on signaling theory and information asymmetry, this study proposed a positive link between initial-stage VC investment and a startup’s growth and performance. Using a sample of 363 firms listed from 2000 to 2007, this study demonstrated that startups are sustained and perform better as they receive their VC investment at the initial stage. The level of potential absorptive capacity positively moderated this association, unlike realized absorptive capacity, which did not show significant moderating effects.

This paper introduces the structural principle of a new offset radial type motor. Through analyzing the kinematic characteristics of the motor piston theory, the result shows that the motor has characteristics of good startup performance at low speed, good sliding performance with sliding boots, smooth operation, low noise and so on, so the performance is superior to the general motor of low speed and high torque. Besides, comparing with other types of hydraulic motor, its lifetime increases and it is also easier to produce and repair. Moreover, beside the use of common hydraulic system, it can also be used in pure water hydraulic system under certain conditions.
