Abstract

The establishment of new companies is increasing in Sweden. Swedish new corporations or AB´s ( Ltd´s) are rising by 20% . Is this due to or despite Corona? Necessity or observing ? - But here we may end up in a new situation or another category of "opportunities". Swedish new corporations or AB´s ( Ltd.’s) are rising by 20%. We asked entreprenologist Stefan Lindström what does is it depend on By swedish magazine . www.foretagande.se (https://www.foretagande.se/antal-nya-aktiebolag-okade-med-20-under-2020) If we try to measure from the beginning of 2020 and we say that the first wave Corona was in February. I think it is said that the first reported case was on January 31 in Jönköping. How long it took before it began to affect the labor market, however, can be difficult to say. But last year 2020, you see a bigger difference in March and April. If you compare March 2019 with March 2020, 3804 and 5740 companies started, respectively. In April, there were 3,735 companies in 2019 and 4,122 newly established limited companies in 2020, respectively. If we look at 2018, these figures were around 3,500–3600 each for these two months. June 2020 started 3865 and the same month the year before it is 2700 new limited companies, i.e. an increase of 43%. And it is during this spring that the first ones are notified and that companies reduce their working hours. Many lost their jobs due to the pandemic. The increase continued to be high during the autumn. In rounded numbers 2018, 2019, 2020. September 3.300, 3.900, 5.400 October 4.100, 4.000, 5.100. November 4.400, 4.000, 5.800. In entrepreneurship research, it is often said that entrepreneurship comes from either necessity or observation, says Stefan Lindström. Watch his TEDx talks: Necessity or observing ? But here some say we may end up in a new situation or another category of "opportunities". The opportunity costs of running it have only fallen due to current economic conditions, and many now feel free to act. For example, a person with a good idea who would not otherwise give up his current well-paid and relatively secure job. But, now with these notices and dismissals, one can then use these figures to anticipate reasons for the increase in new companies, and then especially in these mentioned periods. If we also add 2017 and look at a total of the same 11 months and per ditto year it will be in round numbers. 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020. 43.508, 41.028, 41.963, 51.876 Compare to the year before -6% +2% +24% Compare to 2017 -6% +4% +19% Necessity or observing? But here we may end up in a new situation or another category of "opportunities". While entrepreneurs are driven by an exciting idea, the opportunity costs of running it have only fallen due to current economic conditions, and many now feel free to act. For example, a person with a good idea who would not otherwise give up his current well-paid and relatively secure job. But, now in these times he has no job or thinks that the job itself is in danger, so why not make his idea a reality - now. With these notices and dismissals, one can then use these figures to anticipate reasons for the increase in new companies, especially during these mentioned periods. So, the news about + 20 % seems to be adequate Antal nya aktiebolag ökade med +20% under 2020 – Företagande.se (foretagande.se)
Antal nya
aktiebolag ökade
med +20% under
2020
Vad beror det på? Vi ställde frågan till Entreprenolog Stefan Lindström.
Här är hans svar.
Om vi försöker mäta från början av 2020 och vi säger att den första vågen
Corona var i februari. Jag tror man säger att första rapporterade fallet var 31
januari i Jönköping. Hur lång tid det tog innan det började påverka
arbetsmarknaden kan dock vara svårt att säga.
Men förra året 2020 så ser man en större skillnad i mars samt april. Jämför man
mars 2019 med mars 2020 startade det 3804 respektive 5740 bolag. April månad
var det 3735 bolag under 2019 respektive 4122 nyetablerade aktiebolag 2020.
Tittar vi på 2018 så var dessa siffror runt 35003600 vardera för dessa två
månader.
Juni 2020 startades 3865 och samma månad året innan ligger det på 2700 nya
aktiebolag, alltså en ökning med 43%.
Och det är under denna vår som de första varslas samt att företag drar ner på
arbetstiden. Många blev av med sina arbeten på grund av pandemin.
Ökningen fortsatte att vara hög under hösten.

Inom entreprenörskapsforskningen så brukar man säga att entreprenörskap
kommer ur antingen necessity eller observation, säger Stefan Lindström.
Nödvändighet eller observerande på svenska. Men här kanske vi hamnar i en ny
situation eller en annan kategori av ”möjligheter”. Medan entreprenörerna drivs
av en spännande idé, har möjlighetskostnaderna för att driva den bara sjunkit på
grund av nuvarande ekonomiska förhållanden, och många känner sig nu fria att
agera. Till exempel en person med en bra idé som inte annars skulle ge upp sitt
nuvarande välbetalda och relativt säkra jobb. Men, nu i dessa tider har denne
inget jobb eller tycker att jobbet i sig är i fara, så varför då inte göra verklighet av
sin idé nu. Med de varsel och uppsägningar kan man då med dessa siffror ana
anledningar till ökningen av nya företag och då särskilt i dessa nämnda perioder.
Addera vi även 2017 och tittar totalt per samma 11 månader och per dito år blir
det i runda tal.

Så nyheten med + 20 % känns adekvat.
