Abstract:Using a large linked employee-employer dataset to trace and characterize the types of firms generating new entrepreneurs in Finland, it is found that such transitions are rare and that smaller firms produce new entrepreneurs more frequently than larger firms. In addition, it is also found that firms' R&D intensity and their productivity are negatively related to the probability of employees transiting into entrepreneurship.
