Resumen

Este trabajo analiza el papel de la actividad innovadora de un país en la supervivencia de los emprendedores en la UE-15, considerando emprendedor al autoempleado con asalariados (o empleador). Para ello, se estiman modelos de duración sobre la base de los microdatos del Panel de Hogares de la Unión Europea (PHOGUE). Como medidas de innovación, se utilizan los siguientes indicadores agregados a nivel de país: esfuerzo tecnológico; resultados de la actividad científico-técnica, y nivel de formación de la población. Nuestros resultados sugieren un papel fundamental de las actividades de innovación en la supervivencia empresarial.
