Abstract
Human resource management and entrepreneurial research have rarely been combined, with little clear literature in the area of human resource management in entrepreneurial firms. Meanwhile, the sustainable growth and viability of emerging high-tech firms is critical to the well-being of the Irish economy. This paper reports on the results of an empirical study on the organisation-building aspect of entrepreneurial firms, specifically the human resource practices within Irish high-tech start-ups. The research findings are benchmarked with findings from the Stanford Project on Emerging Companies (Baron and Hannan, 2002).
