Firm Performance Outcomes

Accurately predicting a firm’s financial future has long been a central goal of academic and applied economic research. A number of Data Enclave researchers are using data from the Kauffman Firm Survey (KFS) and NIST-TIP to expand our understanding of why some businesses succeed while others fail. These scholars are exploring, for example, how the features of a new business, the nature of its financial and organizational arrangements, and the characteristics of its founders help determine its prospects for economic growth and stability.
