description | This paper examines the maturation process of firms that enter an industry by constructing new plant and investigates the extent to which improvements in the performance of any entry cohort are the result of a selection process that culls out the most inefficient entrants or of a learning process that allows survivors to improve their performance relative to incumbent firms. Both selection and evolutionary learning are found to affect post-entry performance, but selection per se is a more important contributor to the overall growth of a cohort. |
