description This study investigates the factors that influence the discontinuation of Japanese business start-ups using the resource-based view (RBV) framework. By conducting an empirical study using the binary logit model, this study reveals the factors that caused start-ups that began in 2006 to suspend operations by 2010. According to the results of the analysis, the better the company was prepared for potential threats before it opened, the higher the probability that the business would remain in operation. Moreover, it was found that business continuity is higher when the manager has business experience related to the current business. In terms of model fit, it was found that start-up preparation is more important to continuity than manager attributes.
