摘要：In the context of worldwide internationalization, a new entrepreneurial financing mode has emerged and gained popularity, which has been improved and modified significantly in terms of both form and content. This study selects crowdfunding as its breakthrough point to explore and study the relationships between the backgrounds of initiators, experiences, and financing effects. Through data mining technology, this article introduces a database including 423 entrepreneurial financing projects and entrepreneurs’ information, and entrepreneurs’ locations covering 10 countries and regions. By using the multivariate least square model, we conclude that the entrepreneurs’ technical educational backgrounds, offline entrepreneurial experiences, and online entrepreneurial experiences all have positive effects on internet financing. The weaker the value that the uncertainty avoidance in the entrepreneurs’ host countries has, the stronger the facilitation and promotion from offline and online entrepreneurial experiences on internet financing. Furthermore, the level of uncertainty avoidance in the entrepreneurs’ countries has a moderating effect as well.
