abstract = {We analyze the effect of industry, region, and time on new business survival rates
by means of a multidimensional approach. The data relate to West German
counties in the 1983-2000 period. Survival chances of start-ups tend to be
relatively low in industries characterized by a high minimum efficient size and
high numbers of entries. We find a rather pronounced positive influence of
regional growth on survival rates while the relationship between nationwide
development of the respective industry and survival tended to be negative. We
also find a remarkable high level of spatial autocorrelation.},
