| Summary | The need for clarifying the state of new start-ups is heightened in order to maintain the viability of the Japanese economy. Our Institute has thus decided to build up on the past surveys of new start-ups (carried out in 1969, 1970, 1972, 1982, and 1989) and publish current findings in the form of white paper. This survey is the 6th of the kind, and accompanies an interview survey. |
