♀️♀️♀️EPISODE 2♀️♀️♀️ of 🇨🇭🇨🇭 WOMEN STARTUPS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM 🇨🇭🇨🇭 In our last episode (lnkd.in/d5C7vHn9) we discussed where to find ♀️ startups (relative to ♂️ startups) in general so the next question to be answered is: WHERE DO WE FIND WOMEN GROWTH-ORIENTED VS WOMEN NON GROWTH-ORIENTED STARTUPS?

♀️♀️♀️ 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭 Women Startups and Where to Find Them 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭♀️♀️♀️: Well, what is a "women startup" in the first place? It's a new business registration on the Swiss Business Register (www.zefix.ch) which has more women founders than men founders.

It all started at a meeting of the Industrial Economics field committee of the Verein für Socialpolitik e.V. meeting in Regensburg back in 2016 (superbly organized by Andreas Roider). And it's now accepted for publication in Management Science.

Wegen Gerhard Baum bin ich 1989 in FDP eingetreten. Wegen Guido Westerwelle (im Nachhinein ein Guter) 2006 wieder ausgetreten. www.spiegel.de/politik/deut...

Das Delta zwischen Besuchenden (in unserem Katalog) und Downloads zeigt schön, wie wichtig Multiplikatoren wie data.europa.eu sind. Und wie unnötig Kantonsgrenzen für Daten sind.

There is a new Kaiser in the house, and it is Franziska Kaiser, our new post-doctoral student who is joining us from HEC Lausanne. Welcome Franziska!

Das Irre an dem enormen Druck auf GymischülerInnen in der 🇨🇭 ist: sitzen sie dann erst einmal in der Vorlesung, dann sie im Durchschnitt ganz genau so gut vorbereitet wie meine Studierenden in 🇩🇰 und 🇩🇪 - sie wirken mir dafür auch deutlich orientierungsloser. www.tagesanzeiger.ch/langzeit-gym...

As a high-skilled immigrant from one of Switzerland's neighboring countries and now a Swiss citizen and voter I might be biased - but this is such an intersting and excellent study where relevance meets rigor. May the journalists take notice!

Mal wieder herausragender Datenjournalismus bei @zeit.de : www.zeit.de/politik/2024... Übrigens gibt es zu fast jeder hier untersuchten Grenze auch akademische Studien (kleiner Thread):

arXiv is, imo, the best place for publishing working papers and we should recognize the work that volunteers do to provide this public good to us. Here is the list of current arXiv moderators for economics:

This is really, really cool! I mean, if we economists want to be taken seriously by a broader public (e.g., those who feed many of us), this is one way to go.

Is it possible to follow all of them back in one go?

I have informed @iza_bonn that I would like to quit its fantastic network in the wake of these changes in leadership. I thank @iza_bonn for 15 inspiring years of membership and I am wishing it all the best for the future.

I have now lived in for 15 years and even became a citizen. Regardless, the country still keeps bewildering me. This year I learned that both: - beating your own children - "conversion therapy" (e.g. changing the sexual orientation) are lawful. Wild. www.tagesanzeiger.ch/umgang-mit-q...

Office view today.

Relevant research:

What a wonderful world it could be.
