Abstract Based on role theory and social identity theory, taking the operation process of the entrepreneurial team as the research object, a mediated moderator is built to explore the relationship between the faultlines of new venture teams and entrepreneurial performance. Based on the 466 sample data of 96 new venture teams, the results indicate that: (1) Information-based team faultlines has positive effect on entrepreneurial performance, while social categorization team faultlines has negative impacts on entrepreneurial performance, both impacts are mediated by role clarity; (2)Team identification moderates the relationship between faultlines of new venture teams and role clarity, and for teams with high team identification, the negative impact of new venture teams faultlines on role clarity is weaker;(3) Team identification has an impact on the relationship between faultlines of new venture teams and entrepreneurial performance through role clarity. With clear roles, team identification has an impact on the relationship between the entrepreneurial team rupture zone and entrepreneurial performance. That is, in teams with higher team identity, the faultlines of new venture teams’ negative impact on entrepreneurial performance through role clarity is weaker. The research results also has important theoretical and practical significance to the establishment and management of new venture teams.
