The R&D risk-return trade-off
Previous studies have established that young innovative companies (YICs), characterized by high levels of in-house research and development (R&D), exhibit a pronounced growth premium at the upper end of the conditional growth distribution and are therefore of particular interest to policymakers. We argue that the binary view underlying this literature – i.e. the R&D vs. non-innovator dichotomy – can be meaningfully extended to provide a better un…
Resilient entrepreneurs? — revisiting the relationship between the Big Five and self-employment
The Big Five personality traits and their influence on entrepreneurial action have been repeatedly studied using a trait-based approach.

A hidden source of innovation? Revisiting the impact of initial vocational training on technological innovation
While an increasing number of studies postulate that vocational education and training (VET) activities have a positive impact on the innovative capacity of training companies, empirical evidence on the topic remains contradictory. This study exploits establishment data from a representative survey of German companies to estimate the relationship between firms' participation in initial VET and their innovation outcomes. Our results show that the …

One reason for this is the…
