Abstract
The Comprehensive Australian Study of Entrepreneurial Emergence (CAUSEE) is the first Australian research to employ the large scale, longitudinal research originally developed for the Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics (PSED) (Reynolds, 2007.) In recognition of PSED-type random samples being dominated by imitative low potential ventures (non “high potentials”: non HP), CAUSEE employed a methodology using novel criteria to develop theoretically representative samples of the “high potential” (HP) firms. This paper presents preliminary results of the CAUSEE research. Comparing HPs with other firms, HPs spend a longer time in gestation, are more often created by teams, are male dominated, have higer use of outside advisors, venture capital and angel investment and exhibit more internationalisation activity.
