Entrepreneurship has been trendy in Taiwan because the government tries to boom the economy. The prior researchers have proved entrepreneurial opportunity identification plays a key role in entrepreneurship. The main purpose of the study is to examine it empirically. How entrepreneurial opportunity identification will influence entrepreneurial performance is explored in the study. The research tested moderating model and mediating model in entrepreneurial competition: age and entrepreneurial experience moderates stress perceived, stress tolerance and entrepreneurial opportunity identification; entrepreneurial opportunity identification mediates stress perceived, stress tolerance and entrepreneurial performance.

Data was collected from the competition, “From IP to IPO” held by the Ministry of Science and Technology in Taiwan. The total number of valid team samples was 104, and the individual samples was 427 in collected in four batches continuously. The results are: (1) Stress tolerance and stress perceived will influence the entrepreneurial opportunity identification. (2) Both stress perceived and stress tolerance will be moderated by age and entrepreneurial experience to affect the entrepreneurial opportunity identification. Study contribution is that the data was collected for four batches of competition, which made primary variables in study could subjectively be observed. It also provides a quite reliable reference for those who wanted to start a business.
