Anywhere in the world, when a business is launched it is more likely to fail than to succeed; the global average is that 75% of businesses close within two years. In other words, most companies fail and there still has been no accounting for the reason why. This publication tries to clarify those issues and share with all its readers the findings at this point in time.

We hope that it will be a source of inspiration for those who want to start a business and do not have the courage to do so, as well as for all those who tried and failed so that they will try again.
