  • A Randomized Field Experiment on Early Stage Investments
    Is it Just the Idea that Matters? A Randomized Field Experiment on Early Stage Investments Shai Bernstein, Arthur Korteweg, and Kevin Laws* Abstract Which start-up characteristics are most important to investors in early-stage firms? This paper uses a randomized field experiment involving 4,500 active, high profile, early stage investors, implemented through AngelList, an online platform that matches investors with start-ups that are seeking capital. The experiment randomizes investors’ information sets on “featured” start-ups through the use of nearly 17,000 emails. Investors respond strongly to information about the founding team, whereas they do not respond to information about either firm traction or existing lead investors. This result is driven by the most experienced and successful investors. The least experienced investors respond to all categories of information. We present evidence that the information materially impacts investment rates in start-up companies. The results suggest that, conditional on the quality of the idea, information about human assets is highly important for the success of early stage firms. JEL classification: G32, L26, D23 Keywords: Angels, Early stage firms, Entrepreneurship, Crowdfunding, Theory of the firm Current Draft: March, 2014 * Shai Bernstein ([email protected]) and Arthur Korteweg ([email protected]) are from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and Kevin Laws is from AngelList, LLC. We thank Wayne Ferson, Steve Kaplan, seminar participants at Harvard Business School, UCLA, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, University of Maryland, University of Southern California, University of Texas at Austin, and brown bag participants at the UC Berkeley Fung Institute and Stanford for helpful comments.
