Description
We conjecture that the mobility of academic scientists increases the propensity of
such agents to engage in academic entrepreneurship. Our empirical analysis is based
on a survey of researchers at the Max Planck Society in Germany. We find that
mobile scientists are more likely to become nascent entrepreneurs. Thus, it appears
that citizenship and foreign-education are important determinants of the early stages
of academic entrepreneurship.
