The Impact of Entrepreneurship Programs on Minorities
研究创业培训项目对女性和非白人等少数群体创业活动的影响，发现短期效果小，但长期能显著提升其创业可能性，对非少数群体效果不显著。
We document the impact of an entrepreneurship training program on startup activity of minorities (females and non-Caucasians). We compare entrepreneurial activity between applicants who are accepted into the program with applicants who are program finalists but not accepted. We find that the effect of the program is small for minorities in the short run. However, the effect of the program is more pronounced for minorities' likelihood of longer run startup activity, whereas the effect on non-minorities is small and statistically insignificant. We suggest that such programs are most effective for individuals that may otherwise have limited access to entrepreneurial opportunities.
