Whenever there is an external institutional stakeholder it is almost guaranteed to happen. Someone in that external institution has a bonus or promotion depending on the outcome, and will demand results. They will also have penalty clauses in the contract which can be anything from non-payment, to seizing control of a start up, or even shutting it down.
I have seen it happen myself in England and Germany, and there are plenty of well documented cases from the States so I don't think it is culturally dependent in the sense of national culture. If you live in a blame free society let us know where as it would be an excellent place for a start up!
