I assess the magnitude of human capital spillovers in US cities by estimating plant-level
production functions. I use a unique firm worker matched dataset, obtained by combining the …

We investigate whether increased geographic concentration of human capital generates
positive externalities that benefit firms located in the area. Using a panel of Chinese …

I assess the magnitude of human capital spillovers by estimating production functions using
a unique firm-worker matched data set. Productivity of plants in cities that experience large …

Abstract Knowledge spillovers in the form of human capital are often regarded as the engine
of sustained growth and development. We employ a rich employer–employee matched …

The paper studies the relationship between human capital spillovers and productivity using
a unique longitudinal matched employer-employee dataset of Israeli manufacturing plants …

This paper examines whether there are productivity spillover effects among clustered firms
and, if so, whether a firm's human capital affects its absorption of spillovers. To analyze …

We estimate a model of urban productivity in which the agglomeration effect of density is
enhanced by a metropolitan area's stock of human capital. Estimation accounts for potential …

In this paper, we first estimate firms' total factor productivity by differentiating marginal
contributions to firms' production from various types of workers, grouped by their highest …
