【论文摘要】Using a unique matched employer-employee data set, we estimate random-effects GLS and pooled OLS wage regressions in order to examine whether or not academic spin-offs in Germany pay higher wages than other high-tech start-ups. Our analysis contributes to the literature not only by showing whether potential wage differentials between employees working in newly founded firms can be traced back to the property of the employer to be a spin-off firm but also provide further insights in the wage determination in newly established high-tech firms. The results show that employees working in a transfer spin-off earn indeed higher wages than employees working in other start-ups. There are positive and significant wage differentials for employees with a university degree and those without a formal qualification but not for employees with a vocational training. On the contrary, competence spin-offs do not pay higher wages, not even for employees with a university degree.
