Abstract

The aim of the paper is to investigate the eﬀect of previous co-worker experience on the survival of knowledge intensive start-ups. For the empirical analysis I use the Danish Integrated Database of Labor Market Research (IDA). This longitudinal employer-employee database allows me to identify co-worker experience among all members of the ﬁrm. In addition, I will make a distinction between ordinary start-ups and entrepreneurial spin-oﬀs. The results show that previous co-worker experience has a positive eﬀect on new ﬁrm survival. This eﬀect appears to be valid predominantly for ordinary start-ups than for entrepreneurial spin-oﬀs.
