The role of employees for post-entry firm growth
Koch, Andreas; Späth, Jochen; Strotmann, Harald - 2012
While the majority of existing studies on the determinants of post-entry firm growth focus on the role of the founders or on the impact of firm-specific characteristics like size, age or industry affiliation, a possible impact of the characteristics of a start-up's workforce on post-entry growth...

Microeconomic models with latent variables : applications of measurement error models in empirical industrial organization and labor economics
Hu, Yingyao - 2015
This paper reviews recent developments in nonparametric identi.cation of mea- surement error models and their applications in applied microeconomics, in particular, in empirical industrial organization and labor economics. Measurement error models describe mappings from a latent distribution to...

What causes cross-industry differences of technical efficiency? An empirical investigation
Fritsch, Michael; Stephan, Andreas - 2004
Using micro-level panel data of about 35,000 firms from the German Cost Structure Census, we analyze the differences of technical efficiency across industries. Technical efficiency is estimated by firms' fixed effects. One striking result is that the distribution of technical efficiency across...

The distribution and heterogeneity of technical efficiency within industries: An empirical assessment
Fritsch, Michael; Stephan, Andreas - 2004
This paper analyzes the distribution of technical efficiency within manufacturing industries. Using a representative sample of 35,000 firms in 255 industries of the German cost structure census, technical efficiencies are estimated by applying a deterministic frontier production function with...
