TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that creating viable and profitable ventures depends not only on the habits, heuristics, and routines that nascent entrepreneurs have acquired from family, schools, and work careers prior to the startup stage, but also on what they can learn by doing, borrowing, and experimenting during the startup process.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors pointed out that research using registration data to study new ventures is very likely to generate biased results and that research attempting to track new ventures from a very early stage can still suffer from selection bias due to left truncation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explain the low likelihood of entrepreneurial success by focusing on the contrast between organizational forms in terms of cultural codes that tap into widely held perceptions versus organizational forms that sustain effective guidance for organizational activities, and suggest suggestions for further research to discover what entrepreneurs actually do during the start-up process.

TL;DR: Taking organizational emergence as a process comprising entrepreneurs engaging in actions that produce outcomes, hypotheses about the social mechanisms of organizational construction involved in investing resources, developing routines, and maintaining boundaries are proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify advances and challenges in three key areas: framing of research questions, data collection and structure, and the measurement of time and space related contexts, and conclude that researchers are more comfortable measuring variations in environmental forces across space than across time.
