【 摘 要 】

How do high-growth firms affect the restof the economy? This paper explores this question usingHungarian administrative microdata. It finds evidence ofstronger productivity growth for firms supplying andoperating in industries with more high-growth firms. Thesurge of high-growth firms' demand for intermediateinputs could explain this positive vertical spillover. Firmswith intermediate productivity levels seem most likely tobenefit from this effect. The results hold irrespective ofthe level of spatial aggregation.
