摘要

Using data from 4,762 U.S. firms in the Kauffman Firm Survey, our analysis shows that, compared to unincorporated entrepreneurs, incorporated entrepreneurs are more likely to have IP and to have a greater number of patents and trademarks but not copyrights. Within the group of incorporated entrepreneurs, we find that C-corporations are the most likely to have IP and to have a greater number of patents and trademarks compared to limited-liability companies and S-corporations. Policymakers concerned about employment and job creation should focus on incorporated entrepreneurs, especially C-Corporations, as having the most IP potential.
