The Selectiveness of the Entrepreneurial Process
基于德国全球创业观察截面数据，研究了创业过程中不同阶段的选择机制，并实证解释了潜在创业者的人口与认知特征差异。
This paper focuses on the phase before a firm is founded. Based upon cross-sectional data from the German section of the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, the specific aims of the paper are to shed some light on the selection that takes place during the entrepreneurial process and to explain empirically the demographic and cognitive characteristics of (potential) entrepreneurs. The results reveal significant differences between common determinants of the different phases of the entrepreneurial process.
