Survival\nrates vary widely depending on the industry <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On average, 83% of all newly established startups are still active one\nyear later. However, the survival rate decreases in the subsequent years. Thus,\nonly three of five newly established companies are still active after three\nyears. The survival rates, however, appear very differently depending on the\nindustry. Businesses in the healthcare and social services sectors have the\nhighest survival rates. On average here, 87.1% are\nstill active after one year, 77.4% are still active after two years, and 72.3% are\nstill active after three years. This is followed by the \u201ctransportation and\nstorage\u201d industry as well as the construction industry. The lowest survival\nrates are found in the hospitality industry. On average there, only 76.6% of\nall newly established businesses are still active after the first year. In the\nsecond year, the rate drops to 57.6% and in the third year, with 49.6%, not\neven half of culinary businesses survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Larger companies with more than one\nemployed person have a clear benefit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While companies with more than one employed person all have survival rates of more than 90% after the first year, this rate is only 82.5% in companies with just one employed person. These one-person companies are also those that by make up the largest portion of company closures. Of 34,052 company closures in 2014, 83.8% were companies with just one employed person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
