This is mostly limited to Kickstarter, which is not exactly the dataset that I would go looking for if I wanted to make definitive statements about 'organizations' or start-ups in general.
A better description of the findings would be 'kickstarters started by individuals rather than by pairs of people have a higher chance of success, but not much different than from larger teams'.
It's even worse than that: this is limited to successful Kickstarters. Turns out individuals who can pull off a solo Kickstarter might be a bit more successful overall.
