This can be partly attributed to the fact that February of the previous year saw a very strong increase, with 3,552 new registrations. The only language region to see an increase on February 2016 was Romandy, with new registrations up by 2.5%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Welcome increase on January 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That Swiss entrepreneurship is once again flourishing can be seen from a comparison with the previous month, which shows an increase of 7.54%, or 249 new company registrations. The lowest increase was posted by German-speaking Switzerland with 4.31%, although with 2,276 new registrations it nonetheless accounted for 64.08% of new companies. Romandy saw an increase of 9.9% or 1,066 new registrations (30.01% of the total). The strongest increase was posted by the canton of Ticino with 39.07%.
