Entrepreneurial Spawning and Firm Characteristics
We analyze the implications of entrepreneurial spawning for a variety of firm characteristics such as size, focus, profitability, and innovativeness. We examine the dynamics of spawning over time. Our model accounts for much of the empirical evidence relating to the relation between spawning and firm characteristics. Firms that have higher patent quality spawn more, as do firms that have higher...

متن کاملThe Small Firm Effect and the Entrepreneurial Spawning of Scientists and Engineers
Scientists and engineers in small firms are far more likely than their large firm counterparts to enter entrepreneurship, a phenomenon we label the small firm effect. We explore the origins of this small firm effect, identify four classes of explanations—preference sorting, ability sorting, opportunity cost, and the possibility that workers in small firms develop entrepreneurial human capital—a...
متن کاملThe Entrepreneurial Spawning of Scientists and Engineers: Stars, Slugs, and the Small Firm Effect
Using data from a broad sample of US scientists and engineers, we examine the relationship between work experience in firms of different sizes and worker ability on decisions to enter entrepreneurship. We find that workers in small firms are far more likely than others to leave paid employment to found new ventures, and that prior experience in small firms predicts a number of positive performa...
متن کاملA Simulation of Entrepreneurial Spawning
This paper describes how patterns of industrial clustering arise with respect to the size of an initial firm whenmeasured in terms of innovation. Through principles of evolutionary economics, the aim of this paper is to examine the ’birth’ of industrial clusters. We take an endogenous and supply-side approach, where firms in a region spawn from incumbents. Technology is qualitatively described ...
