abstract: Purpose – This study aims to examine the moderating effect of firm age and size on the relationship
between network characteristics (network centrality, network density and tie strength) and firm performance.
This study also aims to investigate the difference in the effect of network characteristics on the firm
performance of Javanese and Minang ethnic enterprises.
Design/methodology/approach – An explanatory research design was adopted, which involved a
survey in the form of a structured questionnaire of target owners and managers of 34 Javanese ethnic
enterprises in North Sumatra, Indonesia and 100 Minang ethnic enterprises in Yogyakarta, Central Java,
Jakarta and Bogor, Indonesia. The data is analysed using structural equation modelling.
Findings – The findings of this study confirm resource dependency and social capital theory. Network
centrality, network density and tie strength have a significant effect on firm performance. The results also
show support for the moderating role of firm age on the relationship between network characteristics and firm
performance. The moderating role of firm size is not supported. The comparative test of the influence of the
three network characteristics on ethnic enterprise performance confirms that Javanese ethnic enterprises have
identity-based networks, while Minang ethnic enterprises use calculative-based networks.
Originality/value – The originality of this study lies in the investigation of the role of family and external
partners in the running of ethnic enterprises at start-up and during the growth phase. The definition of
“family” is based on a kinship perspective due to the specificity of Asian cultures, particularly in Indonesia. Of
the hundreds of tribes in Indonesia, the Javanese and Minang were chosen because both are well-known as
entrepreneurial tribes, have unique cultural values and have active migrants to other provinces.
