Tiivistelmä
This thesis analyzes the impact of Kiuas business accelerator on startup survival. The study assessed previous research that has used fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to analyze business incubator and accelerator programs’ impact on firm survival. The analysis showed that companies with low-profit margins located outside the Helsinki region survive more often than other accelerated companies. Furthermore, large-sized and non-SaaS business-to-business companies were also identified among sufficient conditions. Finally, this thesis discovered that adding financial information to the fsQCA can yield meaningful results, which previous research has not used in a similar way.
