演讲内容简介：

Entrepreneurial activities differ substantially across populations. However, whether and how the entrepreneurial culture can contribute to these variations are not yet well understood. With a unique database, the Chinese Labor-force Dynamics Survey (CLDS), this study considers internal migrants rather than international migrants in previous research to explore the entrepreneurial culture of origin’s effect on their entrepreneurial activities and unveil the involved mechanisms. Internal migrants have cut most of their links with their origins. However, the entrepreneurial culture of origin, represented by the start-up rate of 2004 and historical start-up rate (1848-1916), can still significantly predict migrants’ entrepreneurial activities in host cities, confirming the existence and persistence of entrepreneurial culture. Further analysis reveals that this persistent effect is due to social capital, role model effect, and entrepreneurial personality trait. Through these channels, the intangible entrepreneurial culture of origin can be transformed into tangible business opportunities and migrants’ willingness and capability of doing business, which persistently stimulate their entrepreneurial activities in host cities.
