Abstract: Abstract In the present work we study the phenomenon of knowledge-based entrepreneurship within Greek companies active in high technology sectors. The analysis is based on data from a structured questionnaire released to a representative sample of Greek-based start-ups established in the period 2000–2010.The study proposes taxonomy of firms into groups based on specific variables: the intensity of business knowledge, their innovative performance, and the networking. According to the statistical analysis, four clusters of companies emerged. We conclude that although we look at high-tech firms, which are considered pioneers in terms of innovation, a large proportion of companies are characterized by very low innovation performance, with founders in the majority having low and medium education levels.
