Professor Jennifer L. Woolley, Professor of Management and Entrepreneurship at Santa Clara University, shares valuable insights from her fascinating research, “Love, Labor, and Chocolate: Why Copreneurs Thrive in Craft Businesses.”

In her research “How Life Partners Can Succeed Together in a Craft Business,” Professor Jennifer L. Woolley, along with Jo-Ellen Pozner, explores why romantic partners, known as copreneurs, often thrive in the world of craft entrepreneurship. Focusing on the U.S. bean-to-bar chocolate industry between 2005 and 2019, the study finds that nearly one-third of these businesses were started by couples, a significantly higher rate than in the broader startup ecosystem. More notably, businesses founded by life partners were about half as likely to close, suggesting a strong advantage in longevity and resilience. The research highlights how shared values, deep trust, and seamless role coordination contribute to this success. These findings underscore that when partners are aligned in both purpose and passion, their businesses are more likely to endure and flourish.

Dr. Jennifer’s research and teaching center on entrepreneurship, innovation, and the emergence of firms, industries, and technologies. Her recent work explores the dynamics between founding teams, intellectual property, public policy, and firm performance.

Professor Jennifer Woolley’s research has been featured in top academic journals like Academy of Management Discoveries, Organization Science, and Journal of Business Venturing. A frequent speaker at leading conferences such as the Academy of Management and Strategic Management Society, she also serves on the editorial board of the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Business and Management.

Professor Erik Angner of Stockholm University offers profound insights in his book “How Economics Can Save the World: Simple Ideas to Solve Our Biggest Problems,” presenting practical economic thinking as a tool to address today’s most pressing global challenges.

Our world faces unprecedented challenges - from climate change and inequality to hunger and the lasting impacts of a global pandemic. These crises have made our lives more uncertain and our societies more divided. But what if economics could help?

In How Economics Can Save the World, Professor Erik Angner argues that economics is not just about markets, money, or the wealthy elite. It’s a powerful framework for understanding the world around us - and for designing practical solutions to real-world problems. Whether it’s parenting or public policy, organ donation or housing, economics provides tools that can improve decision-making, promote fairness, and enhance wellbeing. With a rich blend of optimism and real-life stories, Angner reveals how economists think - and how that thinking can help us build a more just, inclusive, and sustainable future. This is an episode that reclaims economics as a force for good - and invites readers to see it as a guide for making life better for everyone.

Dr. Angner is the author of Hayek and Natural Law and the widely used textbook A Course in Behavioral Economics (3rd edition, 2021). His scholarly work spans behavioral and experimental economics, the economics of happiness, and the philosophical foundations of economic theory. His widely acclaimed book, How Economics Can Save the World (Penguin, 2023), brings economic thinking to bear on today’s most urgent global challenges.

Dr. Erik Angner’s interdisciplinary expertise bridges economics and philosophy. He holds dual PhDs in Economics and in History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Pittsburgh, a path shaped, as he puts it, by 'serious mission creep.'
