    The Evaluation of Founder Failure and Success by Hiring Firms: A Field Experiment

    Friday February 11th, 10:00 - 11:15am, BeijingTime Abstract: Organizations tout the importance of innovation and entrepreneurship. Yet, it remains unclear how they evaluate entrepreneurial human capital—namely, job candidates with founder experience. Understanding how hiring firms evaluate this experience is important because it reveals insights into structures and processes within organizations. Organizations research points to two organizational perspectives related to the evaluation of founder experience: Former founders may be advantaged, due to founder experience signaling high-quality capabilities and human capital, or disadvantaged, due to concerns related to fit and commitment.

    The Virtuous Cycle of Innovation and Capital

    Saturday January 29th, 10:00 - 11:15am, BeijingTime Abstract: Does local innovation attract venture capital? Using a regime change in the commercialization of university innovation in 1980 that strongly increased university incentives to patent and license discoveries, we document the complement to Kortum and Lerner (2000)’s finding that financing leads to future innovation. Because universities have different technological strengths, each local area surrounding a university experienced an increase in innovation relevant to particular sets of industries after 1980—industries which differ widely across university counties.
