Innovation and Growth: Startups vs. Incumbents

CAPORCE
This project examines how startups and incumbents contribute differently to innovation and economic growth in France. Specifically, we investigate when new companies are more likely to innovate than established ones and how innovative startups grow after commercializing their ideas. Using detailed French business data, the study analyzes organizational structures, innovation patterns, and growth strategies. It aims to provide empirical evidence on how firm age and structure influence innovation and growth, contributing to our understanding of economic dynamism.
