Abstract

Setting up a firm can be an arduous task. Entering a market and competing successfully is subject to severe uncertainty and requires diverse qualifications that are rarely contained in one single person. As a result, a considerable proportion of new firms leave the market relatively soon after entering; thus, in some industries or regions only a minority of the entrants is able to survive for a longer period of time.
