Introduction: As a developing nation, Indonesia persists in its endeavors to boost national growth, including initiatives to support the creative industry through startup companies. This research aims to examine the impact of servant leadership on followers’ creativity, with climate for creativity as the mediating factor. Methods: This research is a quantitative study using primary data obtained through a questionnaire survey from 178 employees working in 73 Indonesian startup companies. The sampling method was purposive sampling. The collected data were then processed and analysed using SEM-PLS. Results: The results revealed the significance of climate for creativity as a full mediator in the relationship between servant leadership and followers’ creativity, meaning that servant leadership has an indirect influence on followers’ creativity through climate for creativity. These findings suggest that leaders who adopt servant leadership styles can enhance followers’ creativity through climate for creativity. Conclusion and suggestion: This study found that servant leadership's impact on startup employees' creativity is fully mediated by the perceived climate for creativity. This implies that by fostering a climate supportive of creativity—through flexible work environments, recognition of creativity, and resource provision—servant leaders indirectly enhance employee creativity. Thus, when servant leaders cultivate a climate for creativity, it boosts the creativity of startup employees in their work.

Full textAbstract:
Visa policies to retain United States-trained STEM PhDs are of central importance to national innovation and economic competitiveness. There is also growing interest in “startup” visas that stimulate entrepreneurial activity and job creation, particularly in technology sectors. However, there is little understanding of how visa policies might influence foreign PhDs’ employment in technology startups. This study investigates differences between 2,324 foreign and US PhDs from US research universities using a longitudinal survey of individuals’ preferences and characteristics during graduate school and their subsequent employment in a startup or established firm. Among PhDs whose first job is industrial research & development, 15.8% of US PhDs work in a startup compared with 6.8% of foreign PhDs. Foreign PhDs are as likely as US PhDs to apply to and receive offers for startup jobs, but conditional on receiving an offer, they are 56% less likely to work in a startup. This disparity is partially explained by differences in visa sponsorship between startups and established firms and not by foreign PhDs’ preferences for established firm jobs, risk tolerance, or preference for higher pay. Foreign PhDs who first work in an established firm and subsequently receive a green card are more likely to move to a startup than another established firm, suggesting that permanent residency facilitates startup employment. These findings suggest that US visa policies may deter foreign PhDs from working in startups, thereby restricting startups’ access to a large segment of the STEM PhD workforce and impairing startups’ ability to contribute to innovation and economic growth.

Full textAbstract:
Startups are considered to play an important role in creating jobs, revitalizing the economy, and enhancing national competitiveness. Accordingly, the government's multifaceted efforts have increased the number of startups, but continued advancement in quality is necessary. In order for startups to grow into global companies and play a leading role in leading national economic growth, it is necessary to first clearly identify the various factors necessary for startup success. Accordingly, this study was conducted for the purpose of suggesting implications and future research tasks that can be provided by research trends on startup success by synthesizing previous studies. To this end, a total of 104 domestic documents were collected through a systematic literature review that collected and analyzed existing domestic studies, and the following results were obtained by analyzing the concept of startups and trends in research related to startup success, trends by research period, academic field, and method, trends in research topics, and the relationship with major variables in research. First, research on startup success has been steadily increasing from 3 studies in 2014 to 21 studies in 2023. This is because startups have different characteristics and potential from existing startups based on their innovativeness and rapid growth potential. Second, the fact that startup success research has been conducted in various fields such as society, culture, art, technology, science, and law and published in 50 academic journals suggests that startups play an important role in various industrial ecosystems. Third, the results of analyzing research on startup success based on the ERIS model show that research topics are more biased toward resource and management strategy dimensions. This suggests that resource factors and management strategy factors are recognized as key factors in startup success. However, since startup success is achieved through the mutual influence of various factors, research on founder factors and industrial environment factors should also be conducted in a balanced manner to ensure comprehensive interest in startup success. This study is significant in that it provides useful insights to founders and policymakers who want to continue the direction and growth of future startup research based on these results.

Full textAbstract:
Since the foundation of Y Combinator in 2005 and Techstars in 2007, startup accelerators have rapidly emerged as a new form of organization in the startup ecosystem. In Korea, Primer was founded in 2010 as the first startup accelerator and was then followed by other early accelerators. The recent government certification of accelerators has since triggered the rapid spread of accelerators.
 However, despite this rapid diffusion of accelerators, there is a paucity of research. This paper seeks to offer a conceptual model as to how accelerators add value. It also provides suggestions for accelerator design, public policy and future research. Accelerators can mitigate institutional voids that hinder the creation and success of startups. They also assist startups to gaining access to human, social, and financial capital by offering education programs, mentoring service, networking opportunities, and demo days. In addition, mentoring helps startups to test key assumptions and receive feedback on their ideas and business models. In doing so, startups can evaluate their ideas and business models more objectively and from diverse perspectives, mitigating problems stemming from the overconfidence and inexperience of entrepreneurs. After a brief review of the history of accelerators, the paper delineates the sources of high failure rates of startups, explaining how accelerators add value by mitigating the difficulties associated with startups and how the characteristics of entrepreneurs, startups and ecosystems affect the value-added roles of accelerators. The paper concludes by offering implications for theory, practice, and public policy and by providing future research suggestions.

Full textAbstract:
India is rapidly emerging as a premier platform for entrepreneurs and startups, with significant contributions from innovative minds and successful entrepreneurs across small towns. The "Startup India; Standup India" initiative, launched in 2018, aims to create abundant opportunities and bolster India's startup ecosystem. This initiative establishes a robust framework for fostering innovation and startups, driving sustainable economic growth, and generating widespread employment opportunities. The government’s goal is to empower startups through innovation and design. The "Standup India" initiative focuses on promoting entrepreneurship among Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), and women. The rural counterpart of Startup India is the Deen Dayal Upadhyay Swaniyojan Yojana. Both initiatives were launched by the Department of Industrial Promotion and Policy (DIPP) to nurture entrepreneurial talent and innovation across diverse communities. The study will examine the retrospective and prospective aspects of the "Startup India; Standup India" initiative, addressing the challenges and providing suggestions to enhance the program’s success. This research contributes to a nuanced understanding of the Indian startup ecosystem by meticulously evaluating the initiative’s successes, failures, and future directions, thereby providing a foundation for evidence-based policies to nurture startup growth. As Dhirubhai Ambani once said, "Ideas are no one’s monopoly. Think big, think fast, and think ahead."

Full textAbstract:
Abstract India has established itself as the third-largest global startup ecosystem, with thriving start-ups. Despite commanding high valuations, startups across diverse sectors are grappling with challenges in achieving profitability. Increasing concerns about job security and the potential for additional layoffs in the absence of an improved funding environment are causing apprehension among talent, even within larger startups. The research intends to analyse the Indian startup ecosystem, analyse and compare the profitability of chosen Unicorns and Decacorns in both listed and unlisted categories, and understand the employee perception of working in startups. An analytical research design is followed. To understand employee perception, a survey facilitated through a structured questionnaire has been conducted among 100 employees of startups situated in Karnataka and Kerala, regions distinguished for their highly supportive ecosystems. Analysis depicted a discrepancy in profitability suggesting that Decacorns, with their startup status, robust valuations, and soaring operating revenue, have yet to establish themselves as consistently profitable entities. Findings from the employee survey highlight that learning opportunities and accelerated career growth stand out as motivating factors for choosing employment in startups. Conversely, the downsides include concerns about change, job insecurity, and workload. The comprehension of stock options at the knowledge level was evident, potentially serving as a stirring factor for startups to incorporate into their employee benefits.

Full textAbstract:
It is frequently reported that the environments within tech startups are characterized by the celebration of masculine norms and competitive behaviors, which ultimately affect an inclusive work environment and employee well-being. However, there is a lack of sound empirical evidence, including startups in other industries, to substantiate these claims. This study investigates the prevalence of masculinity contest culture (MCC) within German startups through a quantitative analysis involving 101 participants. The Masculinity Contest Culture scale was employed to assess the manifestations of traditional masculine norms related to emotional resilience, physical superiority, workaholism, and aggressive competitiveness. Results show an overall low prevalence of MCC, with no significant differences based on gender perceptions, contradicting previous studies suggesting entrenched masculinity in startups. “Put Work First” emerged as the most prominent dimension, reflecting a persistent culture of work prioritization. This study challenges the stereotype of startup environments as bastions of toxic masculinity. The findings underscore the need for further research to understand cultural factors influencing startup ecosystems and to foster healthier work environments. Future studies should expand sample sizes to validate these findings and enhance generalizability.

Full textAbstract:
This study aimed to explore the factors that affect the success of information technology utilization in the business operations of agri-tech startups in Southern Thailand. Purposive sampling was used for random sampling, and the samples consisted of startup entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector in the south, registered with the department of business development, and a trade association to promote new technology entrepreneurs in 2019. The total number of cases was 48, and there were five experts in information technology management, startup business management, and executives involved in the startup business. Data were collected using in-depth semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire with a 5-point rating scale. Frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and multiple regression analysis were applied using the R program. The results showed that 11 factors were associated with the successful use of information technology in operating a startup. The main predictor of success in information technology utilized in business operations of agri-tech startups in Southern Thailand were the characteristics of Information technology (X1), behavior on using information technology (X3), familiarity with basic technology in the organization (X6), financial technology (X10), and policy and law (X11) (R2 = 0.511, P < 0.05). The results of the study could provide useful guidelines for developing and improving information technology, innovation utilization, and for setting policy suggestions regarding needs analysis, developing information technology in supporting agriculture entrepreneurs, and other businesses in Southern Thailand to manage the startup ecosystem.

Full textAbstract:
This research examines the influence of initial Intellectual Capital (IC) on the survival probabilities of new ventures in accelerator programs operating in emerging countries. It confirms the beneficial impact of IC assets on startup survival during the pre-performance phase. While most existing studies focus on advanced economies, this research highlights the significance of IC for startups in emerging markets. Our findings show that IC accumulations, encompassing useful and applicable knowledge, enhance survival prospects even after accounting for potential unobserved heterogeneity and considering both external and internal influences. The study also underscores the critical role of accelerator programs with well-structured curricula, particularly those focusing on specific impact areas, in enhancing startup survival. The wider economic environment significantly influences survival probabilities, suggesting the need for future research on the operational dynamics of startups and accelerators across different country groups. This research opens avenues for further studies on the mediating and moderating effects of IC components on performance, particularly in the context of human capital and financial constraints, thereby addressing gaps in the literature and expanding our understanding of startup survival determinants in emerging economies.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the influence of tax burden indicators and ease of tax compliance on the development of clean and digital energy startups, critical players in the global transition to sustainable energy systems. Recognizing the importance of innovation-driven enterprises in achieving climate goals, this research investigates how taxation policies and compliance processes impact the growth and success of startups leveraging renewable and digital energy technologies. The study utilizes a comprehensive dataset, spanning 2000–2021, derived from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the World Bank. It examines key metrics such as total tax rates, compliance time, post-filing indices, and R&D tax incentives across developed and developing countries. A combination of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Fixed Effects (FE), and Random Effects (RE) regression models was employed to analyse the relationships between tax-related variables and startup activity, with the inclusion of lagged variables to assess delayed policy impacts. The results reveal nuanced dynamics between tax burdens and startup development. Contrary to traditional assumptions, higher overall tax rates on income and profits showed a positive correlation with startup growth, suggesting that revenues from such taxes may fund beneficial incentives like R&D grants. However, indirect taxes, such as sales and payroll taxes, alongside higher tax-to-GDP ratios, negatively influenced startup proliferation by diverting resources away from innovation and scaling efforts. Simplified tax compliance processes emerged as a significant driver of startup growth. Improvements in post-filing indices and reductions in compliance time correlated with increased startup activity, underscoring the administrative burdens that disproportionately affect resource-constrained enterprises. Furthermore, digital tax systems, including e-filing and automated reporting, proved particularly advantageous for clean and digital energy startups, aligning with their technological expertise and enabling resource reallocation toward innovation. The study highlights disparities between developed and developing economies. While advanced economies benefit from streamlined compliance systems and robust tax incentives, startups in emerging markets face fragmented tax frameworks, lengthy processes, and limited access to incentives, restricting their global competitiveness. These findings have important policy implications. Governments should implement digital tax systems to ease compliance, provide targeted incentives to foster clean energy innovation, and ensure tax policies are designed to support entrepreneurial ecosystems. Policymakers in developing regions must address systemic inefficiencies to level the playing field and unlock the potential of startups in driving sustainable development and energy transitions globally.

Full textAbstract:
The paper focuses on key success factors of startups in the European Union. Startup companies have a massive potential to boost the level of innovation and competitiveness of national economies. They are also uniquely equipped to provide extremely effective and flexible ways of meeting both existing and emerging market needs. However, the development of these microventures differs from country to country. Hence, we put forth a hypothesis that strategic success factors in the development of startups vary in highly developed and catching-up countries. Our main goal was to determine the key success factors of startups in the EU, and to classify the gap between developed and lagging Member States. For this purpose, we applied the method of component analysis on startup data available for selected the EU states. We managed to isolate 5 components explaining 72% of data variability, all of which can be linked to human capital as well as to formal and informal economic institutions. The results confirmed the validity of our hypothesis. We established that more developed countries offer an institutional competitive advantage to startups, while the gap in success factors between highly developed and catching-up countries can be attributed to human capital and to institutions. Based on our findings, we offer suggestions how to reduce this gap by improving formal and informal institutions via innovative public policy and by supporting education.

The Korean government proposed the K-SDGs in 2019 to promote the UN SDGs, but the role and tasks of science and technology, an important means of implementing the SDGs, have not been materialized. Accordingly, the role of science and technology ODA for the SDGs was established through the Ministry of Science and ICT's policy research project 'Science and Technology ODA Promotion Roadmap for Spreading the New Southern Policy and Realizing the 2030 SDGs'. In addition, goals, strategies, and core tasks for the next 10 years were derived in 10 fields such as water, climate change, energy, and ICT. In this paper, we analyze 30 key tasks of the ODA promotion roadmap for science and technology for the realization of SDGs, and propose mid- and short-term tasks and implementation plans for effective roadmap promotion. Among the key tasks in each field, four common elements were derived: ICT/smartization, a global problem-solving center, cooperation/communication platform, and business model/startup support platform/living lab that can create and integrate roadmap implementation conditions. In addition, the four mid- and short-term tasks, 1) Establishment of science and technology ODA network, 2) Establishment of living lab business platform linked to start-up support business, 3) Local smartization of recipient countries, and 4) Expand and secure sustainability of global problem-solving centers, were set in relation to the implementation of the detailed roadmap. For the derived mid- and short-term tasks, detailed implementation plans based on the ICTization of global problem-solving centers were presented. The implementation of the mid- and short-term tasks presented in this paper can contribute to the more effective achievement of the science and technology ODA roadmap, and it is expected that Korea's implementation of SDGs will also achieve high performance.

The growth of startups in Indonesia continues to experience upward growth. Behind the growth that continues to move up, there is a success rate statistic which is a contradiction behind its development. The startup statistics show that about 90% of startups fail. As many as 75% of unicorn startups believe that a good UI/UX design can increase startup valuations and additional investors' funds. User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) are closely related because UX results from UI interactions. Less-On is a provider of private tutoring service providers who serve as an intermediary bridge between teachers and students. This research will be carried out by integrating the processes in the Lean UX method into every process that exists at the stages of software engineering development. The results obtained from this study are a final prototype validated in terms of criticism and suggestions through a questionnaire as a form of Less-On branding. Positive UX and better usability are significant for further development of the prototype private tutor booking application, which plays a vital role in acceptance, satisfaction and efficiency in using this Less-ON application. The UI has good usability for users, with a SUS scoring earn 85.53, which is above average and acceptable.

In the evolving landscape of startup development, understanding the factors that influence governance quality is crucial for sustained growth and operational success. This study examines how perceived market competition and technology adoption impact governance quality in startup leaders, aiming to fill the gap in literature regarding the interplay of these factors in startup settings. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 330 leaders from various startups across the technology, healthcare, and retail sectors. Data were collected using established scales: the Market Competition Intensity Scale for perceived market competition, the Technology Acceptance Model Scale for technology adoption, and the Corporate Governance Quality Scale for governance quality. Pearson correlation and linear regression analyses were performed using SPSS-27 to evaluate the relationships and predictive power of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The descriptive statistics indicated moderate to high levels of perceived market competition (Mean = 4.52, SD = 0.76) and technology adoption (Mean = 4.08, SD = 0.88), with governance quality also rated positively (Mean = 4.35, SD = 0.93). Pearson correlation revealed significant positive relationships between governance quality and perceived market competition (r = 0.29, p = 0.003), as well as technology adoption (r = 0.41, p < 0.0001). Regression analysis showed a significant model fit (F = 45.05, p < 0.0001), with an R² of 0.22, suggesting that both variables significantly predict governance quality. The study confirms that perceived market competition and technology adoption are significant predictors of governance quality in startups. The findings emphasize the importance of strategic management and technological enhancements in fostering effective governance structures, providing valuable insights for startup leaders and policymakers aimed at enhancing startup sustainability and effectiveness

This article analyzes the success and failure factors of sports startups in developing countries. Using a narrative review and descriptive analysis, internal factors such as effective management, experienced teams, innovation, and market alignment are identified as key elements of success. Conversely, poor management, lack of experience, financial challenges, and market misalignment are major reasons for the failure of these startups. External factors like infrastructure, government policies, economic conditions, and market competition also significantly impact the performance of sports startups. Countries with better infrastructure and more government support tend to witness greater success in sports startups. In contrast, bureaucratic complexities and lack of adequate support can lead to startup failure. The article compares success and failure factors across different countries, identifying common patterns among these factors. It also highlights the crucial role of cultural and economic differences in determining the success or failure of startups, emphasizing that startups need to adapt their strategies according to local conditions. Finally, the article provides practical recommendations for entrepreneurs, policymakers, and researchers. It also discusses the limitations of the study and offers suggestions for future research, including the need for deeper cultural and economic analysis and the examination of the impact of new technologies in this field.

Full textAbstract:
New Product Development (NPD) is a critical yet challenging aspect of business development, with failure rates ranging from 40% to 80%. This challenge is particularly pronounced in startups, which form the backbone of most developed economies. Despite their importance, startups often struggle with NPD, with some studies suggesting a failure rate as high as 90%. This research paper contributes to the existing literature by examining the NPD journey of a technology startup, Plugable. Plugable, an Irish enterprise in the mobility sector, aims to create a platform similar to Airbnb for private Electrical Vehicle (EV) chargers. The paper traces the journey of two products the company attempted to launch. The first product did not reach the launch stage, leading the business to revise its strategy and develop Plugable. At the time of writing, Plugable is at the prototype stage, having secured €50,000 in external funding and won several national business awards. The case study provides several key learnings for entrepreneurs in the NPD space. It underscores the importance of accurately defining the problem statement, the critical role of validation, and the significance of assembling the right team to develop an effective go-to-market strategy. These findings contribute to the emerging body of knowledge on NPD within the startup context, providing practical insights into the application of established NPD models. Furthermore, the study offers valuable insights into technology startups' unique challenges during the NPD process.

Full textAbstract:
In today’s digital world, cybersecurity is super important for tech startups. This paper looks at why strong cybersecurity matters for these companies as they grow and innovate. Startups often deal with sensitive information and use the latest tech, which makes them easy targets for cyber attacks. That’s why they need strong security measures to protect their assets, keep customer trust, and follow the law. The paper starts by discussing the special challenges tech startups face. They usually have small budgets, work quickly, and deal with changing threats. Many startups focus on creating new tech but often ignore cybersecurity. They see it as something that slows them down, not as something key to their strategy. By looking at cases of both successful and unsuccessful startups, we can see how good cybersecurity can be part of a strong business plan that boosts their resilience and edge over competitors. It also talks about how cybersecurity helps with getting investors and forming partnerships. Cyber incidents can seriously harm a company’s reputation and finances. So, investors look for startups with solid cybersecurity practices. When startups prioritize security, they not only reduce risks but also show they can be trusted. The study shows that tech startups need to have a strong cybersecurity mindset that matches their growth goals. This means setting up security measures and creating a culture where everyone understands the importance of security. The paper finishes with suggestions on how startups can weave cybersecurity into their planning. It highlights the need for training, investing in security tools, and working with experts in cybersecurity. This research shows that cybersecurity is not just about following rules or managing risks. It’s a key part of what makes a tech startup valuable. It’s essential for handling the digital challenges and achieving long-term success.

This paper presents an analysis of aspects of venture capital (VC) financing, focusing on risks and rewards, correlation with geographic location and industry. The results were obtained through statistical analysis of data from public startup databases and a questionnaire distributed to selected VC-funded startups. The aim of the paper was to analyze the risks and benefits of VC funding and the impact of regional and segment factors. The paper identifies the key benefits of VC funding as fast and flexible access to capital, while the key risks include loss of control over the business and high pressure on performance. The analysis suggests that the perceived riskiness of VC financing is strongly influenced by both geographic location and industry. Certain geographic locations were found to have an affinity for specific industries, suggesting regional specialization within the VC market. The paper reveals significant trends in funding, with the dominance of technology startups, business platforms and the HealthTech sector, and increasing activity in certain regions in recent years.

Full textAbstract:
Background Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, for instance Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT), is continuously evolving, and its userbase is growing. These technologies are now being experimented by the businesses to leverage their potential and minimise their risks in business operations. The continuous adoption of the emerging Generative AI technologies will help startups gain more and more experience with adoptions, helping them to leverage continuously evolving technological innovation landscape. However, there is a dearth of prior research on ChatGPT adoption in the startup context, especially from Entrepreneur perspective, highlights the urgent need for a thorough investigation to identify the variables influencing this technological adoption. The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the factors that impact the uptake of ChatGPT technology by startups, anticipate their influence on the triumph of companies, and offer pragmatic suggestions for various stakeholders, including entrepreneurs, and policymakers. Method and analysis This study attempts to explore the variables impacting startups’ adoption of ChatGPT technology, with an emphasis on comprehending entrepreneurs’ attitudes and perspectives. To identify and then empirically validate the Generative AI technology adoption framework, the study uses a two-stage methodology that includes experience-based research, and survey research. The research method design is descriptive and Correlational design. Stage one of the research study is descriptive and involves adding practical insights, and real-world context to the model by drawing from the professional consulting experiences of the researchers with the SMEs. The outcome of this stage is the adoption model (also called as research framework), building Upon Technology Adoption Model (TAM), that highlight the technology adoption factors (also called as latent variables) connected with subset of each other and finally to the technology adoption factor (or otherwise). Further, the latent variables and their relationships with other latent variables as graphically highlighted by the adoption model will be translated into the structured questionnaire. Stage two involves survey based research. In this stage, structured questionnaire is tested with small group of entrepreneurs (who has provided informed consent) and finally to be distributed among startup founders to further validate the relationships between these factors and the level of influence individual factors have on overall technology adoption. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) will be used to analyze the gathered data. This multifaceted approach allows for a comprehensive analysis of the adoption process, with an emphasis on understanding, describing, and correlating the key elements at play. Discussion This is the first study to investigate the factors that impact the adoption of Generative AI, for instance ChatGPT technology by startups from the Entrepreneurs perspectives. The study’s findings will give Entrepreneurs, Policymakers, technology providers, researchers, and Institutions offering support for entrepreneurs like Academia, Incubators and Accelerators, University libraries, public libraries, chambers of commerce, and foreign embassies important new information that will help them better understand the factors that encourage and hinder ChatGPT adoption. This will allow them to make well-informed strategic decisions about how to apply and use this technology in startup settings thereby improving their services for businesses.

Full textAbstract:
Research about perceived ease of use (PEoU) and perceived usefulness (PU) on behavioral purpose to utilize are generally tested directly (Venkatesh et al., 2012), so it is not clear how PEoU and PU determine behavioral intention to employ, therefore, it is necessary to place user satisfaction (US) as a mediating variable to elucidate the effect of PEoU and PU on behavioral intention. This research is carried out on applications developed by large companies, not on applications of digital entrepreneurship startups. The aim of this study is to look into the elements that have an impact on US and the outcomes resulting from the utilization of digital entrepreneurship startup applications. This study involves conducting a survey to gather research data and information on 122 respondents applying e-commerce microfloriculture. Structural equation modeling (SEM) and SmartPLS are employed for examining the causal connection among constructs. The result of the investigation approves that PEoU, PU, and information quality (IQ) influence continuance to use (CtU) through US and digital literacy (DL) variables, which are proven to moderate relationships of US and CtU. The paper explores the practical implications for managers of digital entrepreneurial startups, considers any constraints or limitations, and offers suggestions for future research.

Business accelerators have emerged as an important innovation intermediary, with their primary role identified as stimulating premature startups through mentorship and training programs. However, despite significant improvement and 17 years of working history, there are still gaps in working behavior, business accelerator forms, organizational structure, operations, and outcomes. This systematic review aims to boost the understanding of seed accelerators in innovation and entrepreneurial activities. The Context, Intervention, Mechanism, and Outcome (CIMO) framework was used to collect data from the 53 articles published in the last 17 years. In this current systematic review of applying a CIMO analysis to business accelerators, we retrieved 53 articles for further detailed studies, out of which 21 articles were assessed for the risk of bias analysis. The current review highlights that by providing learning opportunities, idea validation, increased access to growth, and innovation, startup accelerators achieved their goals. Moreover, the study also identified gaps in the literature and opportunities for cohort-based, short-term mentorship programs. The outcomes of the present study will provide suggestions for policymakers, entrepreneurs, managers, and investors.

Full textAbstract:
Aim: Crowdfunding is a relatively new source of financing that enables an entrepreneur or a startup to obtain capital from many people, often through the Internet. This innovative financing method can democratize access to capital, allowing entrepreneurs in developing nations to bypass traditional gatekeepers and connect directly with potential investors or supporters. The appeal of crowdfunding for startup entrepreneurs in developing countries lies in its ability to democratize access to capital, bypassing traditional gatekeepers and connecting directly with potential investors or supporters. Despite its potential, the adoption and effectiveness of crowdfunding in developing countries like Sri Lanka are not yet fully understood. The objective of this research is to identify and analyze the key determinants of crowdfunding adoption intentions among Sri Lankan startup entrepreneurs. Design: Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model used to develop conceptual framework of the study. Performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and perceived risk included as the variables. The target population of this study was the individual startup entrepreneurs in Sri Lanka. 384 startup entrepreneurs were selected based on the industry they belong; including technology, agriculture, manufacturing and services. Multiple regression analysis used to test the hypotheses. Findings: Out of 384, a disproportionate split exists between males and females as startup entrepreneurs. The overwhelming majority, 93% (n=357), were male, and 7% (n=27) were female. The largest group (41.1%, n = 158) described their ventures as early, focusing on product development or market validation. This was followed by 32% (n = 123) in the idea stage, 20.1% (n = 77) in the growth stage, and 6.8% (n = 26) in the scaling stage. E-commerce dominates the sample, representing 51.8% (n = 199) of the startups. Interestingly, 53.1% (n = 204) have considered but not used crowdfunding, while 33.6% (n = 129) have used it. Among the predictors, effort expectancy emerges as the strongest predictor (β = 0.301, t = 6.638, p < 0.001), followed by facilitating conditions (β = 0.285, t = 7.295, p < 0.001), performance expectancy (β = 0.261, t = 6.383, p < 0.001), and social Influence (β = 0.151, t = 3.536, p < 0.001). Implication: Given the strong influence of effort expectancy, platform developers should prioritise user-friendly interfaces and simplified processes. Policymakers can use these insights to develop supportive regulatory frameworks that enhance the facilitating conditions for crowdfunding adoption. Limitation and Future Research Suggestions: The findings can potentially be urban-biased and may not be generalisable to the Sri Lankan entrepreneurial ecosystem. Deeper insights could be obtained from research incorporating qualitative methods on entrepreneurs' decision-making process. A deeper understanding of cultural influences would be gained through cross-cultural studies that compare crowdfunding adoption factors in different developing economies.

During the research few arising patterns of cognitive entrepreneurship in Ireland were recognized, which can be called 'model one', 'professional one' and a ‘strained one' depending upon the instructional, expert as well as experiential history of the entrepreneurs. The determined patterns will certainly lay the structure for additional growth of training and educational programs for possible entrepreneurs, offering specialized cross-disciplined programs not only for trainees examining entrepreneurship, business economics or organization, but additionally for the trainees from various other techniques, thus boosting the possibility for creating cognitive business owners. It will certainly also permit determining the means of utilizing cognitive ability of individuals as well as attracting them right into entrepreneurship in non-extreme, favorable conditions. This academic article intended to identify the understandings of the phenomenon of the growth of small business presented in the literature as well as the point of views of future research studies. A literature review was conducted in major Journals of Entrepreneurship and Local Business Management, in addition to in the website studies. The material was initially classified right into couple of classifications, which represent the meanings of development, antecedents, and repercussions. After this classification, a strategy on the intricacy of the sensation as well as on the perspectives of research studies existed.

This article analyses the reasons and impact of shift of manufacturing startups from the United States to overseas. After years of refining prototypes and perfecting pilot plants, advanced manufacturing startups frequently look overseas when it is time to scale-up for commercial production. Both manufacturing and technology companies go abroad looking for partnerships, because it is easier for investors. When startups scale their manufacturing elsewhere, the United States loses more than a possible return on the research investment that made such breakthroughs possible. The preliminary research suggests that to fully realize the economic gains associated with innovation, new products and services developed by American innovators must be scaled-up within the US economy, as well as in overseas markets. The four suggestions that have been made include the following: increase financing options for later-stage development; create institutions and incentives; change the contours of market demand; and encourage firms to raise capital through initial public offerings.

While innovation and entrepreneurship have been the main drivers of economic growth in today's world, technology business incubators (TBIs) are expected to promote the innovation-based economy. However, both academy and practice show that TBIs still have a long way to go. Unlike previous studies focusing on TBIs, this study is conducted from the perspective of startups to explore what they want from TBIs. Besides, this study also compares the differences between Korea and China. Results indicate that TBIs need to improve their service quality by taking a startup's life cycle into consideration; startups cannot always realize what they want, and differences exist due to distinct entrepreneurship-related policies and culture. Accordingly, the authors give suggestions to help the government and TBIs play a better role in encouraging startups' development so as to match the TBI with startups.

Abstract The conventional processing of soybeans into soybean meal (SBM) includes multiple stages such as dehulling, solvent extraction, and heat treatment to eliminate antinutritional factors. A SBM plant’s startup phase is when the plant reinitiates its processing after a pause in operations. This is a critical phase in manufacturing because the SBM processed during startup may differ in quality from those produced under normal operations. This study aimed to investigate the effects of startup SBM on nursery growth performance. A total of 300 pigs (241 × 600, DNA; initially 5.34 ± 0.006 kg) were used in a 38-d growth study. Pens were randomly allotted to 1 of 5 dietary treatments in a generalized randomized complete block design with 5 pigs per pen and 12 replicate pens per treatment. Two batches of SBM were sourced from the same plant. The first batch was obtained from the initial truckload from the startup phase of the plant and approximately four hours later, a second batch was sourced once the SBM processing had stabilized. To assess the nutritional quality of SBM, protein solubility in potassium hydroxide (KOH), and trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA) were measured on both sources. The startup SBM had a KOH solubility of 68.9% and a TIA of 6.34 ± 0.12 trypsin inhibitor units (TIU)/mg seed powder, while the normal SBM had a KOH solubility of 82.1% and a TIA of 7.12 ± 0.54 TIU/mg seed powder. The two different SBM sources were blended to create a titration of startup soybean meal in the diet. Startup SBM replaced 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of the normal SBM to form the dietary treatments. The nutritional composition of both SBM sources was considered the same and thus the startup SBM replaced the normal SBM on an equal wt basis without other changes to the formulation. Diets were provided in mash form with dietary treatments fed throughout all three dietary phases. From d 0 to 10, increasing startup SBM led to a marginal decrease in ADG and d 10 BW (linear, P&lt; 0.10) and a reduction in G:F (linear, P=0.041). From d 10 to 22, increasing startup SBM decreased ADG and d 22 BW (linear, P&lt; 0.05), with a marginal reduction (linear, P=0.067) in G:F. However, no significant effects were observed for any growth performance criteria from d 22 to 38 and for the overall nursery period. In conclusion, the quality of startup SBM can affect the performance of nursery pigs, specifically during the first two weeks after weaning, suggesting that pigs may be particularly sensitive to SBM quality during that phase of growth. However, pigs adjusted to the startup SBM towards the end of the nursery period, leading to no differences in overall growth.

Abstract- In this research paper, we analyze the effects of online marketing on startups, particularly looking at the ways digital techniques help them succeed, engage with customers and be discovered by more consumers. Due to the unique issues startups have such as limited resources and swift time to market, online marketing gives them an effective way to communicate with more people affordably. Online marketing tools under examination in this study are social media marketing, SEO, content marketing and paid advertising. The study found that both types of data show how these methods help a brand raise awareness, get new customers and maintain relationships with consumers. The results give startups suggestions for using digital marketing to stay ahead as the business world grows more digital. Keywords- Online marketing, startups, digital strategies, consumer engagement, brand visibility, social media, SEO, content marketing.

Environmental challenges are increasingly becoming central to businesses. The startups are also being increasingly influ-enced by environmental concerns. The present article attempts to understand the environmental concerns in the values guiding the management of the startups at two levels, i.e., start up’s internal as well as external operations. At the same time, it tries to correlate the same with the network size and networking frequency of the startups. A model has been pro-posed to show the relationship between start up’s environmental concerns and their networking efforts. To identify and understand these relations, a survey was conducted on the emerging startups from different fields. The incubation centres at different institutions of Rajasthan (India) were covered under the survey. The findings highlighted a significant relation-ship between the start up’s external environmental concern and networking, thereby suggesting the significance of these concerns for environmental issues in business operations. The startups having high environmental concern were found to be among the businesses which will get more attention and find themselves more scalable. Moreover, findings also re-vealed that the environmental orientation is a very crucial aspect of networking of startups, although the influence of ex-ternal and internal environment orientation has a contrasting impact on the networking of startups. So, researchers and academicians working in the field of environmentally oriented startups can use this differentiation for further researches. There have been studies on correlating the environmental concern with networking in established firms in developed country such as Dickel et al. (2018). Moreover, emerging economies like India, there have not been an attempt to study this kind of relationship in the context of startups. The current study tries to validate the results of the study conducted by Dickel et al. (2018) for the startups in Rajasthan (India).

We propose a novel similarity-based clustering approach to venture capital investors that takes as input the bipartite graph of funding interactions between investors and startups and returns clusterings of investors built upon 5 characteristic dimensions. We first validate that investors are clustered in a meaningful manner and present methods of visualizing cluster characteristics. We further analyze the temporal dynamics at the cluster level and observe a meaningful second-order evolution of the sectoral investment trends. Finally, and surprisingly, we report that clusters appear stable even when running the clustering algorithm with all but one of the 5 characteristic dimensions, for instance observing geography-focused clusters without taking into account the geographical dimension or sector-focused clusters without taking into account the sectoral dimension, suggesting the presence of significant underlying complex investment patterns.
