This $299,139 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) and is scheduled to run from June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2027. The grant will evaluate the impact of accelerated government R&D funding for small technology businesses, examining the effects of gaps in waiting time between funding tranches and the impacts on priority firms. The research uses data on federal R&D...
This three-year, $279,847 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) will fund research using administrative data to study private business investment in the United States. The primary products will be the development of new theoretical frameworks and empirical models to measure self-created intangible investments by privately-owned firms that are often transferred upon sale. This will advance understanding of these...

This $425,449 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research investigating the role of intergenerational transfers, such as bequests or gifts from parents, in facilitating business creation and entrepreneurship. The research aims to examine whether family-financed firms exhibit different performance outcomes compared to those established through other means, as well as how altruism across generations may act as a substitute for credit market imperfections. The findings from the empirical analysis will be used to develop a theoretical model to explore the policy implications, including the effects of changes to estate taxation, government loan guarantee programs, and coverage of old-age risks. No sub-awards are planned under this grant, which has an award date of March 15, 2024 and an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2027.
