Abstract:
Abstract The Swedish version of the Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics (SE-PSED) was initiated in collaboration with the Entrepreneurship Research Consortium (ERC) sponsored the first US Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics (US-PSED I). The projects were initiated to address a major hiatus in contemporary entrepreneurship theory and research. Compared to more developed areas of inquiry, there was a lack of reliable descriptions of the basic phenomena, the entrepreneurial or business creation process, and many of the research procedures utilized by entrepreneurial scholars were not based on representative samples (cf. Chandler and Lyon 2001; Davidsson and Wiklund 2001). Much of the theory about entrepreneurship implied complex, multifaceted processes were affecting the outcomes but there were no existing data sets appropriate for testing these theories. Most analysis was cross-sectional; there was no capacity for testing ideas about processes that may take several years to reach fruition. The primary objective for the SE-PSED was to develop systematic descriptions about the nascent venturing process and consequences for the new firms that would be created. At that time, there was very little information about the early stages of the firm life course.
