This thesis consists of three chapters in the area of applied econometrics. The first chapter uses a synthetic control approach to measure the impact of business model innovation on firm financial performance. The second chapter implements an experimental design method to understand the impact of peer effects on entrepreneurship evaluation and investor decision-making. The third chapter applies machine learning and deep learning methods on financial crisis prediction.The first chapter studies the impact of business model innovation on firm financial performance using a synthetic control method to perform sixteen data-driven comparative case studies in the semiconductor industry. I find that business model innovation has positive impacts on revenue in general. This finding indicates that the business model innovation, which is a non-technological innovation, can have impacts that are similar to technological innovations. From a policy perspective, one implication is that public policy makers should also make policies that support important business model innovation. I also show that companies in the semiconductor industry that changed their business model after the Internet bubble experienced both positive and negative impacts on revenue. The results illustrate that business model innovation might have heterogeneous financial impacts in times of economic instability.The second chapter researched jointly with Kevin Boudreau, studied the impact of peer effects on entrepreneurship evaluation with an experimental design method. In this experimental design study, we examined how different levels of peer intervention impact evaluation submissions and evaluation scores. We also investigated peer effects by gender, race, job title, and industry. We found both positive and negative peer effects in different scenarios, which suggests heterogeneous peer effects. The results provide experimental evidence that peer effects do play a role in decision-making in the entrepreneurship evaluation context.
