Abstract:The study explores the determinants of entrepreneurs' choices of where to locate their ventures. The findings suggest that entrepreneurs place more emphasis on being close to family and friends than on regional characteristics that might influence the performance of their ventures. One reason behind this may be that these relationships may help them to assemble the assets and to recruit the personnel they need to succeed in their ventures.
