abstract = {Although there is a host of literature on the locational choice of traditional
economy firms, relatively little is known about the locational needs and
preferences of new economy firms. Therefore, the current paper provides an
empirical analysis of the factors determining the regional distribution of new
economy firms in Germany. Using a count data analysis, we find evidence that
the number of firms listed in a particular region depends positively on the
region?s knowledge potential (as measured by the number of patents or by the
number of R&D employees) as well as on the regional supply of venture capital.},
