Resum:

This article analyses how agglomeration economies shaped the location decisions of
new manufacturing start-ups in Catalan municipalities in 2001-2005. We estimate
whether the locations of new firms are spatially autocorrelated and whether this
phenomenon is industry-specific. Our aim is to estimate the geographical scope of
agglomeration economies on firm entries. The data set comes from a compulsory
register of manufacturing establishments (REIC: Catalan Manufacturing Establishments
Register).
