Typology of processes for the creation of new companies within the manufacturing industry in Czechia: a comparative analysis of two regions
Mlnářík, Vojtěch ; Květoň, Viktor (advisor) ; Ježek, Jiří (referee)
This thesis contributes to the currently frequent topic of economic geography and explains the processes for the creation of new companies in the Pilsen and Zlín regions between years 2009-2011. The choice of these two regions reflects their similar structural characteristics within the firm sector and their different horizontal position. The aim of this work is to find out through which processes in the monitored regions new companies are being created within the manufacturing industry and to which extent these processes affect the subsequent economic performance of companies during the first five years of existence. For this purpose, a typology of the creation of new companies based on their initial characteristics was designed and processed. These initial characteristics reflect both the regional dimension in terms of the origin of the key resources for the creation of a new company relative to the hosting region and the consequent different competencies and possibilities of newly created companies. Despite the initial assumptions, the results showed that the compared regions are practically the same within this issue. In both regions, new companies are mostly created through internal processes (branching of activities from existing regional base), followed by a creation without a link to the...

Mlnářík, Vojtěch ; Květoň, Viktor (advisor) ; Nemeškal, Jiří (referee)
The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to give a detailed view of the structure of the companies and its development within Borská pole in Pilsen - a successful, public- sector established, industrial zone. Based on publicly available information and analysing the websites of the individual subjects, the companies were divided into 6 types. After that, the development trends and the current status according to the proportion of the individual categories were evaluated. For companies in the manufacturing sector, a degree of sectoral proximity was identified using the ex-ante methodological approach of the related variety concept, i.e. whether the structure of the studied companies is diversified, related variety or specialized. Based on the research, a relatively high proportion of companies operating in non-productive sectors was identified and overall there is a notable qualitative shift regarding activities from originally predominant production towards tertiary and quaternary activities. Finally it was discovered that the industrial composition of companies within the zone is largely unrelated diversified. Key words: typology of the companies, degree of sectoral proximity, related variety, industrial zone, Pilsen
