Enterprising individuals build their careers, continuously making choices between staying at the start-ups they create, leaving to engage in serial entrepreneurship, or exiting into paid employment, either alone, as part of a small independent team, or as part of full company acquired by an established firm. These choices are shaped by experiences and constraints and, in turn, affect subsequent career choices and economic outcomes. Greater attention to human capital dynamics by tracing career histories of innovative personnel within and across firm boundaries may provide richer insights into economic dynamism. An examination of factors that impact enterprising workers' career choices can inform science and innovation policy to promote knowledge creation and diffusion. The US Census Bureau Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) Project provides near universal coverage that allows the construction of the career histories of enterprising individuals in R&D intensive industries across the 18 year time period from 1991-2008. The research focuses on the fates of these individuals after entrepreneurial activity by examining the paths that individuals take after exiting new ventures of different types and by examining the transferability of different entrepreneurial experiences outside of the entrepreneurial context. Family composition constrains geographical mobility which in turn shapes how enterprising individuals build their careers through mobility and entrepreneurship. Together the research explore important individual antecedents to, and consequences of, entrepreneurial activity.

有进取心的个人在建立自己的职业生涯时，会不断地做出选择，是留在自己创建的初创企业、离开去从事连续创业，还是退出带薪工作，要么单独作为一个小型独立团队的一部分，要么作为被老牌公司收购的整个公司的一部分。这些选择是由经验和限制决定的，反过来又会影响随后的职业选择和经济成果。 通过追踪公司内部和跨公司边界的创新人员的职业历史，更多地关注人力资本动态，可能会为经济活力提供更丰富的见解。对影响有进取心的工人职业选择的因素进行研究可以为科学和创新政策提供信息，以促进知识的创造和传播。美国人口普查局纵向雇主-家庭动态 (LEHD) 项目提供近乎全民的覆盖范围，可以构建 1991 年至 2008 年 18 年间研发密集型行业中富有进取精神的个人的职业经历。 该研究通过考察个人在退出不同类型的新企业后所采取的路径以及考察不同创业经验在创业背景之外的可转移性，重点关注这些个人在创业活动后的命运。 家庭构成限制了地域流动性，这反过来又影响了有进取心的个人如何通过流动性和创业精神建立自己的职业生涯。 这项研究共同探索了创业活动的重要个人前因和后果。
