Job Quality by Entrepreneurial Spinoffs
This Danish study looks at whether entrepreneurial spinoffs are important drivers of industry dynamics. More precisely, the booklet investigates whether the quality of jobs in spinoff entrepreneurs are higher than for other entrepreneurs. It distinguishes spinoff firms by different types and differentiates between growing and declining industry-region clusters. It finds that spinoffs on average have higher wages, are more skill intensive, have higher sales per worker, and are more productive than non-spinoff entrepreneurial firms. The differences are more pronounced in growing clusters. An important feature of the analysis is that the entrepreneur is measured as an organic new firm, meaning new firms that are not the result of the restructuring or the organizing of a formally new firm.

Job Creation and Job Types
This booklet extends earlier analyses of the job creation of start-ups vs. established firms by taking into consideration the educational content of the jobs created and destroyed. It defines education-specific measures of job creation and job destruction at the firm level, and it uses these to construct a measure of "surplus job creation" defined as jobs created on top of any simultaneous destruction of similar jobs in incumbent firms in the same region and industry. Using Danish employer-employee data from 2002 to 2007, which identifies the start-ups and which covers almost the entire private sector, these measures provide a more nuanced assessment of the role of entrepreneurial firms in t...
Entrepreneurs Versus Incumbents
What are the characteristics of jobs in entrepreneurial firms as compared to jobs in incumbent firms? Even though this question has been addressed by many researchers before, this study - based on research conducted in Denmark - provides new evidence to the field by examining the entrepreneur as the organic new firm. The majority of studies have focused on entrepreneurs as measured by small or new firms. Organic new firms are defined here as new firms that are not the result of restructurings or organizing existing or additional activities in a formally new firm. Moreover, the book considers entrepreneurial firms by different types and distinguishes between growing and declining industry-reg...
