This paper reports the phase-one results of a planned longitudinal study of the incidence of entrepreneurship among inventors who were employees of national laboratories. A survey of 192 inventors employed by national laboratories and 24 ex-employee inventors who became entrepreneurs provided data for comparison of situational and attitudinal variables. Significant differences in attitudes (as measured by the Entrepreneurial Attitude Orientation Scale) were found between inventors who have not become entrepreneurs and those who have. The differences in perceptions of situational variables between the two groups was significant for only two of the seven dimensions tested.
