Abstract
The aim of this paper is to identify the main characteristics of start-up exits in the Czech Republic. The research gap stems from the lack of research on the start-up exits. For this purpose, the unique Czech Founders database has been used, which includes data on 100 transactions for the 2007-2021 period. Data are evaluated using selected statistics methods. The results indicate that there are statistically significant differences between the industry and the location of the start-up. This research is the first ever to map start-up exits in the Czech context. The contribution of extending the current state of knowledge is the formulation and application of tools supporting the development of entrepreneurial ecosystems by policy makers.
