Abstract: | This article describes the academic contributions of the 2010 recipient of the Global Award for Entrepreneurship Research, Professor Josh Lerner of the Harvard Business School. Lerner’s empirical research on the inter-relationship between venture
capital, innovation and entrepreneurship has greatly extended and improved our understanding of one of the major drivers of
growth in modern economies. The first part of this article explains Lerner’s contributions as regards the structure and organization
of the venture capital industry. Later, his most important publications on entrepreneurship, innovation and intellectual property
rights are surveyed. Several aspects of Lerner’s policy-oriented work are then outlined, before the article closes with a
brief conclusion. |
