Over the same period of time, the job-creation rate of those young tech firms – aged between 1 and 5 years old – was twice as robust as the average rate for firms in the rest of the private sector. That’s partly due to what the report cites as the ‘up-or-out’ dynamic: tech startups tend to either fail quickly or grow rapidly.”
