Knowledge sources of entrepreneurship: Firm formation by academic, user and employee innovators☆ (2014, background): “These changes, coupled with the expansion of patent protection for software and financial services products and processes, impacted information technology in particular (Hall and Ziedonis, 2001; Jaffe, 2000; Kim and Marschke, 2005).”
Mobility, Skills, and the Michigan Non-Compete Experiment (2009, methodology): “…with changes in strategic direction (Boeker 1997), organizational structure (Klette, Moen et al. 2000), the compensation of R&D staff (Moen 2005), innovation and patenting (Kim and Marschke, 2005; Singh 2006b), though not necessarily with performance (Groysberg, Lee, and Nanda, forthcoming).”
How does labour mobility affect the performance of plants? The importance of relatedness and geographical proximity (2008, background): “These benefits of labour pooling are often believed to exceed the downsides of labour mobility (i.e. labour poaching) that reduce the incentive of firms to invest in their own employees (Kim and Marschke, 2005; Combes and Duranton, 2006; Fallick et al., 2006).”
Labour Market Externalities and Regional Growth in Sweden: The Importance of Labour Mobility between Skill-Related Industries (2014, background): “A high intensity of job-hopping may form a threat for firms to lose their key personnel to competitors, and it may lower the incentive for firms to train and upgrade the skills of their employees (KIM and MARSCHKE, 2005; COMBES and DURANTON, 2006; FALLICK et al., 2006).”
The Process of Creative Construction: Knowledge Spillovers, Entrepreneurship and Economic Growth (2007, unknown): “Alternatively, organizational level strategic decisions regarding intellectual property protection (Ziedonis, 2004) may interact with environmentallevel policy regarding enforcement of noncompete clauses (Kim and Marschke, 2005) to impact knowledge spillover strategic entrepreneurship.”
Reputations for toughness in patent enforcement: implications for knowledge spillovers via inventor mobility (2009, unknown): “Given these ownership rights and legal ambiguities, patents may help firms not only to safeguard against unauthorized use of knowledge by imitators and rivals, but also to protect against misappropriation by firm insiders (Kim and Marschke, 2005).”
The effect of intra- and inter-regional labour mobility on plant performance in Denmark: the significance of related labour inflows (2014, background): “In this literature, the benefits of labour mobility are often assumed to exceed the downsides, such as labour poaching (Kim and Marschke, 2005; Combes and Duranton, 2006).”
