dc.description.abstractOur analysis of the survival of firms leads to the important result that the hypotheses aboutdifferences between various industries in the life duration of new firms and about the importance ofthe region of location for the probability of survival are confirmed. Many more enterprises arefounded in the service sector than in manufacturing, but also many more of these start-ups die.The probable life duration in agglomeration areas is in total greater than in rural areas. Theanalysis of the determinants of the hazard rates of firms confirmed the additional hypothesis that alarger number of employees at the time of foundation and the legal form of the limited companyreduce the risk of exit.The growth of employment in firms interviewed by us shows a similar sectoral and regionaldifferentiation as the life duration. The survey found that sectors with a greater proportion ofcooperating firms have a greater growth rate. The innovation activities however do hardly differbetween the analysed high-tech industries. Cooperation between start-up firms can be interpretedas a kind of mutual assistence which results predominantly from personal contacts. The personalnetworks which developed from the environment of the entrepreneurs and according to specificsector conditions should not be treated as equivalent to innovation networks for which our analysisdoes not find any empirical hint.en
