• A knowledge-based typology of university spin-offs in the context of regional economic development (2010, background): “Many ventures develop in an evolutionary pattern over a longer time period before being formally started up (for a summary, see Hayter, 1997; Stam, 2007).”
• Entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial ecosystems (2018, background): “The processes depend on the set of flows or relations within an entrepreneurial ecosystem, which change over time (Spigel, 2017a; Stam, 2007).”
• Formation of entrepreneurial intentions in a regional context (2013, neutral): “…local and regional context in entrepreneurial activities is widely acknowledged in entrepreneurship and economic geography (Malecki 2009; Trettin and Welter 2011), as prior studies have shown that entrepreneurs tend to establish their businesses near where they live (e.g. Stam 2007; Parwada 2008).”
• Industry structure, entrepreneurship, and culture: An empirical analysis using historical coalfields (2016, background): “…low level of schooling and thus human capital among migrants from rural areas and 2) the lack of local support networks that are conducive for accessing and exploiting resources required for starting an entrepreneurial venture (e.g., Figueiredo et al., 2002; Michelacci and Silva, 2007; Stam, 2007).”
• Knowledge context and entrepreneurial intentions among students (2012, background): “their home region and that young firms are very unlikely to change location (Michelacci and Silva 2007; Stam 2007; Zander 2004).”
• The impact of local and external university knowledge on the creation of knowledge-intensive firms: evidence from the Italian case (2014, neutral): “Furthermore, in the difficult start-up phase of a new venture, personal networks are of great help in raising financial resources, recruiting employees, and attracting customers (Sorenson and Audia 2000; Stam 2007).”
• Why does the effect of new business formation differ across regions? (2011, background): “Small-firm presence is defined as the share of employees in establishments having fewer than 50 14 Empirical analyses (Mueller and Morgan 1962; Cooper and Dunckelberg 1987; Stam 2007) provide clear evidence that the majority of new businesses are set up near to the founder’s residence.”
• Entrepreneurship, Evolution and Geography (2009, background): “Once external shareholders own (parts) of the firm, the question is what kind of consequences this has on the spatial organization of the firm (cf. Stam 2006; 2007).”
• Some Notes on Institutions in Evolutionary Economic Geography (2009, background): “Th se routines determine to a large extent the locational behaviour of firms as well as their interactions with local and non-local firms (Stam 2007).”
