Picking Winners or Making Them ?
勝ち馬に乗っているのか、勝ち馬を育てているのか？
J-Startup の政策評価に関する論文のインタビューをさせていただきました。(経済産業研究所Research Digest: 加藤関西学院大学教授と池内RIETI上席研究員)
2018年から実施されているJ-Startup 、J-Startup 地域版、J-Startup Impactの選定企業について、比較対象となる類似企業群(非選定企業)を設定しての分析。
結果、J-Startup 選定で、企業は雇用と売上を伸ばす効果があり、その効果が持続的であることが明らかになりました。
成長メカニズムとしては資金調達とネットワーク拡張。また若い企業に対するサーティフィケーション・エフェクト(お墨付き効果)も確認されています。
Harvard大学Lerner 教授の有名な論文”The Government as Venture Capitalist: The Long-Run Impact of the SBIR Program”と同様の本格的な分析。
ぜひご覧ください。

When your labor belongs to someone else, it can start to feel like your life does too. One of the best remedies to this ache comes from @RitzCarlton: bit.ly/3Uiz185
QREC, Kyushu U's great entrep center is hosting their annual international symposium on entrep ed in Asia, this year as part of RAMEN TECH 2026 Global Summit. Insane energy with both! One of my alleged "contributions" each year is a theme song: suno.com/s/6sRLJ3S9L1a9xJRy Thoughts?

Let’s be honest. Positive people are pretty annoying, right?
Who the hell do they think they are? Don’t they know how hard life is? How tiring it is? How much it takes from us? And they have the audacity to be optimistic?
Wankers.
Though there’s one wanker in particular we’ve got our eye on: bit.ly/4zFYOpZ

As the birthplace of nuclear electricity and the site of the first advanced microreactor to go critical in 50 years, @INL is leading the way to quadruple U.S. nuclear capacity by 2050. Great to have @SecretaryWright in Idaho, the heart of nuclear energy innovation!
.@SecretaryWright at Idaho National Lab: "We have the new nuclear age beginning right now; the Golden era of nuclear energy—with soon to be our 3rd next-generation nuclear reactor to turn on..." 🇺🇸
To get to the expert mindset, it isn’t 10,000 hours, it’s having the right developmental experiences!
