• Regional determinants of entrepreneurial start-ups in a developing country (2008, background): “Despite the plausible role that the rate of small business start-ups plays in explaining regional inequality in developing countries, there has been relatively little empirical work in this area (Todtling and Wanzenbock 2003 : 352).”
• Understanding regional variation in entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurial attitude in Europe (2011, background): “On the supply side, market concentration ( Todtling and Wanzenbock 2003 ), the share of small- and medium-sized firms (Fritsch 1992), and entry- or exit barriers all affect entrance of new firms (Siegfried and Evans 1994).”
• Rural entrepreneurs and institutional assistance: an empirical study from mountainous Italy (2006, background): “However any institutional support to rural businesses should only be targeted in terms of both geographic area and type of businesses (Skuras et al. 2003, Todtling and Wanzenbock 2003).”
• Relationship between individualist–collectivist culture and entrepreneurial activity: evidence from Global Entrepreneurship Monitor data (2011, background): “Tiessen (1997) summarises the key characteristics of individualism and collectivism, and stresses that the objectives people pursue are personal and shortterm in individualist cultures and group-oriented and long-term in collectivist cultures.”
• Regional Social Legitimacy of Entrepreneurship: Implications for Entrepreneurial Intention and Start-up Behaviour (2014, background): “…literature suggests that urban, highly populated regions tend to support business start-up processes by providing more accessible market opportunities and entrepreneurial resources than rural, sparsely populated areas (KEEBLE and WALKER, 1994; REYNOLDS et al., 1994; TÖDTLING and WANZENBÖCK, 2003).”
• Regional patterns and determinants of birth and survival of new firms in Western Germany (2007, background): “According to the ‘urban incubator hypothesis’ (Todling and Wanzenbock 2003 ) most newly-founded firms start in urban areas.”
• Bootstrap financing and owners’ perceptions of their business constraints and opportunities (2005, methodology): “However, this does not imply that modes of capital acquisition are the same and there is some evidence that the availability of outside investment, as well as the resourcefulness of entrepreneurs to cope with the lack thereof, may be region-specific (Sorheim and Landstrom 2001, Todtling and Wanzenbo”
• Do different institutional frameworks condition the influence of local fear of failure and entrepreneurial examples over entrepreneurial activity? (2007, background): “Contrary to the configurations found in the rest of Spain and most of Europe (Regidor 2000, Tödtling and Wanzenböck 2003, Wagner and Sternberg 2004), many parts of rural Catalonia benefit from better economic results than do urban areas of Catalonia.
