However, not every new small firm is a start-up firm. This paper examines the key characteristics of start-up firms, investing trends and other financing opportunities for start-up firms in Croatia. We found that innovation, high and fast growth of business and value, high risk and firm up to 10 years usually in the high-tech industry are the key characteristics of a start-up firm. By joining the EU and with rapid development of technology, it is easier to enter the market and funding opportunities are much broader.
