Establishment exits in Germany: the role of size and age (2012, background): “The liability of smallness can be regarded as a stylized fact (Geroski 1995; Audretsch 1995, p. 149) found in many empirical studies (e.g. Dunne et al. 1989; Esteve-Pérez and Mañez-Castillejo 2008; Geroski et al. 2010).”
“What’s Past Is Prologue” (2015, methodology): “…positive feedback (Grandori & Prencipe, 2008) underlie persistence and amplification of imprints, whereas aging, timerelated factors (Boeker, 1989a; Geroski et al., 2010), exogenous shocks (Gersick, 1994), succession and turnover (Beckman et al., 2007), and memory loss (Gulati, 1995) are some of…”
Going, going, gone: exit forms and the innovative capabilities of firms (2012, unknown): “It is a well-known empirical fact that likelihood of survival increases with firm age and size (Evans 1987, Dunne et al. 1988, Audretsch and Mahmood, 1994, Geroski, Mata, and Portugal 2010).”
Should I quit my day job?: : A hybrid path to entrepreneurship (2014, background): “, 2010), and for the fact that larger ventures may have better chances of survival (Geroski et al., 2010).”
A control group study of incubators’ impact to promote firm survival (2010, background): “2007), innovation and patent activity (Cefis and Marsili, 2006; Wagner and Cockburn, 2010), founding conditions (Geroski et al., 2009) or network embeddedness of start-ups (Shane and Stuart, 2002).”
Born to flip. Exit decisions of entrepreneurial firms in high-tech and low-tech industries (2011, background): “The survival of new firms is related to a number of factors, such as firmspecific resources and capabilities e.g. human capital and knowledge capital, the intensity of market competition, the technology environment, and the macroeconomic conditions (Geroski et al. 2010).”
The impact of human capital on the early success of necessity versus opportunity-based entrepreneurs (2014, background): “Empirical studies of market selection indicate that entrants are heterogeneous and initial conditions influence subsequent success (Gerosky et al. 2010).”
Entrepreneurship and the determinants of firm survival within regions: human capital, growth motivation and locational conditions (2017, unknown): “This is to control for the resources that greater scale provides that have been linked to higher survival through an ability to withstand shocks (Geroski, Mata, and Portugal 2010; Coad et al. 2013).”
The digitalization and public crisis responses of small and medium enterprises: Implications from a COVID-19 survey (2020, background): “As firms must respond to public crises as quickly as possible (Bundy and Pfarrer 2015; Helmer and Hilhorst 2006; Williams 2012), it is highly valuable to examine how firms should respond to such crises (Cui et al. 2016; Geroski et al. 2010; Mayr et al. 2016; Thornhill and Amit 2003).”
Firms’ genetic characteristics and competence-enlarging strategies: A comparison between academic and non-academic high-tech start-ups (2012, background): “As Geroski et al. (2010) have shown, the impact of founding conditions, although persistent, is likely to decrease as time goes by.”
“To have and have not”: founders’ human capital and university start-up survival (2013, background): “As a result, a number of studies have found that founders’ pre-entry knowledge and experience enhance firms’ long-run performance and survival (e.g. Gimeno et al. 1997; Aspelund et al. 2005; Delmar and Shane 2006; Dencker et al. 2009; Geroski et al. 2010).”
