It's deflationary (atleast on what you can borrow for), so usually people wait.
Just like you would not buy a house now, you wouldn't start a business.
I'm talking statistically, not like a rule. ZERO relative to lower rates.

How many businesses are equity funded in the first place?
We did not have capital to start our business.
Most small businesses starting from zero can't get capital in the first place (excluding personal funds, family funds which aren't usually charging interest tied to the Fed benchmark)
Those tech companies that do get tons of capital despite negative value are somewhat unique and for sure interest rates will eventually affect that. Valuations are already starting to come back to at least the Stratosphere ;)
