This corresponds to an increase of 14% compared to January. In comparison with February 2015 a strong growth of 9.6% was achieved. This strong growth is very encouraging, because it demonstrates that entrepreneurship in Switzerland is on the rise again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Growth in the German and French-speaking region of Switzerland<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The German-speaking region recorded a growth of 10.9% compared to the previous year. In the German-speaking region the market share of Switzerland is 64.6%. The French-speaking region of Switzerland also recorded a strong growth of 10.4% and a market share of about 29% of all start-ups. The Italian-speaking region recorded a decrease of 5.3% compared to the previous year and has a market share of 6.4% in Switzerland. However, the Italian-speaking region has the smallest population in Switzerland and it is therefore not surprising that there are less new foundings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cantons with the highest numbers of new ventures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many larger cantons with a great number of new ventures also recorded an increase compared to the previous year. The canton of Zurich exhibited a growth of 14.9%. Other very strong German-speaking cantons were Zug (41.7 %), Bern (17.9 %) and Graub\u00fcnden (31%). The strong Lake of Geneva region with the canton Vaud (26.1%) and Geneva (10.2%) recorded an excellent increase. The growth of the other cantons can be seen in the following graph.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2255\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/new-entries-commercial-register-in-february-2016-large-increase\/february-16\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?fit=452%2C655&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"452,655\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"February 16\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?fit=207%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?fit=452%2C655&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2255\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?resize=452%2C655\" alt=\"February 16\" width=\"452\" height=\"655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?w=452&amp;ssl=1 452w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.startups.ch\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/February-16.png?resize=207%2C300&amp;ssl=1 207w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 452px) 100vw, 452px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"postButton\" href=\"https:\/\/startups.ch\/de\/kontakt-service\/ueber-uns\/praesenz-den-medien\/gruendungsbericht\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u00bb More founding reports<\/a><a class=\"postButton\" href=\"https:\/\/startups.ch\" target=\"_blank\">\u00bb STARTUPS.CH<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There was a strong performance in the number of new start-ups in February 2016 compared to the previous month of January.
