The aim of this study is to identify, apply and test a possible methodology to calculate additional risk premium for startups. This study develops a methodology to calculate risk premium based in the methodology to calculate size risk premium published by the independent investment research Morningstar. The adherence of the methodology proposed in this study is tested by the Kalman filter methodology, which was applied to calculate startup additional risk premium varying over time. The results of the application of both methodologies are similar. Therefore, it is possible to conclude that the Morningstar methodology, when applied to calculate startup premium varying over time, is robust. / Por definição as empresas startups estão expostas a mais riscos e vulnerabilidades que empresas maduras e já estabelecidas no mercado. O objetivo do presente estudo é identificar, aplicar e testar uma possível metodologia para calcular prêmio de risco adicional para startups. Para tanto este trabalho desenvolve um estudo de caso no qual a conhecida metodologia para cálculo de prêmio de risco de tamanho da Morningstar é aplicada a uma startup americana. A aderência da metodologia proposta neste estudo é testada pela metodologia do filtro de Kalman, que calcula o prêmio de risco por tamanho variando ao longo do tempo. Os resultados encontrados são similares em ambas as metodologias. De forma que é possível concluir que a metodologia da Morningstar, quando aplicada para calcular prêmio por tamanho variante ao longo do tempo é robusta.

Embora vários estudos tenham identificado evidências inconsistentes e novos quadros de avaliação tenham sido propostos, poucos trabalhos exploraram o papel do empreendedorismo para criar mudança disruptiva em um setor tradicionalmente conservador. Defendo que a melhoria da eficácia dos empresários mHealth pode aumentar a adoção de soluções mHealth. Assim, este estudo tem como objetivo propor um modelo de gestão para a análise de soluções mHealth do ponto de vista empresarial no contexto de LMIC. Identifiquei o ‘Khoja-Durrani-Scott (KDS) framework’ como base teórica para o modelo de gestão, devido ao seu foco explícito no contexto de LMICs. Na pesquisa exploratória introduzida a seguir utilizei entrevistas semi-estruturadas com cinco especialistas em mHealth, os sistemas de saúde locais e de investimento para identificar as necessárias adaptações ao modelo. Os resultados das entrevistas propuseram que especialmente a questão econômica deveria ser clarificada, assim como a questão empresarial deveria ser adicionada. Além disso, foi proposto um questionário de avaliação. Na segunda fase, apliquei o questionário a cinco start-ups, que operam no Brasil e na Tanzânia. Realizei entrevistas semi-estruturadas com os empresários para obter insights práticos para o desenvolvimento teórico. Três dos cinco empresários perceberam que os resultados correlacionavam com as expectativas dos pontos fortes e fracos das start-ups. As principais deficiências do modelo foram relacionadas com a ambigüidade de algumas questões. Além dos resultados para o modelo, os resultados das pontuações foram analisados. A análise sugeriu que entre os start-ups que participaram os resultados ‘comportamentais e sócio-técnicos’ foram os mais fortes e os resultados ‘política’ foram os mais fracos. O modelo de gestão integra várias perspectivas, estruturadas em torno do empresário. A fim de validar o modelo, a pesquisa futura pode vincular o desenvolvimento de uma start-up com a evolução das pontuações em estudos de caso longitudinais ou testes em grande escala. / Since some years, mobile technologies in healthcare (mHealth) stand for the transformational force to improve health issues in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although several studies have identified the prevailing issue of inconsistent evidence and new evaluation frameworks have been proposed, few have explored the role of entrepreneurship to create disruptive change in a traditionally conservative sector. I argue that improving the effectiveness of mHealth entrepreneurs might increase the adoption of mHealth solutions. Thus, this study aims at proposing a managerial model for the analysis of mHealth solutions from the entrepreneurial perspective in the context of LMICs. I identified the Khoja–Durrani–Scott (KDS) framework as theoretical basis for the managerial model, due to its explicit focus on the context of LMICs. In the subsequent exploratory research I, first, used semi-structured interviews with five specialists in mHealth, local healthcare systems and investment to identify necessary adaptations to the model. The findings of the interviews proposed that especially the economic theme had to be clarified and an additional entrepreneurial theme was necessary. Additionally, an evaluation questionnaire was proposed. In the second phase, I applied the questionnaire to five start-ups, operating in Brazil and Tanzania, and conducted semi-structured interviews with the entrepreneurs to gain practical insights for the theoretical development. Three of five entrepreneurs perceived that the results correlated with the entrepreneurs' expectations of the strengths and weaknesses of the start-ups. Main shortcomings of the model related to the ambiguity of some questions. In addition to the findings for the model, the results of the scores were analyzed. The analysis suggested that across the participating mHealth start-ups the ‘behavioral and socio-technical’ outcomes were the strongest and the ‘policy’ outcomes were the weakest themes. The managerial model integrates several perspectives, structured around the entrepreneur. In order to validate the model, future research may link the development of a start-up with the evolution of the scores in longitudinal case studies or large-scale tests.

A web-based survey has been sent out to the start-up’s target audience (n: 236) in order to gain further relevant information for the designing of Local Wander’s market entry strategy. By applying the diffusion of innovation theory, this thesis could detect five different adopter categories, originally described by Rogers (1962), among Local Wander’s target audience based on their adoption intention. The Early Market was observed to be significantly bigger than the theory predicted. Research revealed four characteristics to be of significant impact on the adoption intention: Relative Perceived Product Advantage, Perceived Product Complexity, Compatibility with digital travel research sources, and the adopter’s Innovativeness towards mobile applications. Specific characteristics in order to identify Local Wander’s early users, the so called Innovators, were detected giving indications for further necessary company market research. Findings showed that the diffusion of innovation framework is a helpful tool for start-ups’ prospective decision making and market entry strategy planning. / A Start-up Brasileira Local Wander planeja entrar no setor de turismo através de um aplicativo para telefone celular, com o objetivo de oferecer um novo serviço de pesquisa para viajantes. Uma pesquisa, via internet, foi enviada a 236 pessoas identificadas como público-alvo para a Start-up a fim de obter mais informações relevantes para a criação da estratégia de entrada no mercado. Ao aplicar a teoria da difusão da inovação, esta dissertação pôde identificar cinco diferentes categorias de adotantes, como descrito originalmente por Rogers (1962), entre o pú- blico-alvo da Local Wander com base na sua intenção de adoção. O Mercado Inicial foi observado significativamente maior do que a teoria previu. A pesquisa, acima citada, revelou quatro características de forte impacto sobre a intenção de adoção do produto: Vantagem relativa do produto percebida pelo público-alvo, complexidade percebida, compatibilidade com recursos digitais de pesquisa de viagem e o quão inovador são os adotantes em relação aos aplicativos para celular. Características específicas para identificar os primeiros usuários do Local Wander, chamados de inovadores, foram detectados dando indicações para futuras pesquisas que sejam necessárias para a empresa. Os resultados encontrados mostram que a teoria da difusão da inovação é uma ferramenta extremamente útil para a tomada de decisão em Start-ups e para o desenvolvimento de estratégia para entrada no mercado.

The aim of the research was to find out which impact the Business Model Canvas, further abbreviated as BMC, has on technology-oriented startups in Brazil. The first step of the study was identify some general concepts of entrepreneurship, as well as the conditions and environment of the country. Afterwards, it was focused on defining and comparing different business model tools and concepts to the BMC. After the literature review and meeting with several professionals in the area of entrepreneurship and startups, a questionnaire was formulated in order to conduct the qualitative study and identify the main impact of the tool. The questionnaire was answered by ten startups. In order to check the validity and credibility of the research outcomes, theory and investigator triangulation was used. As a result, the usage of the BMC could be evaluated by obtaining the outcomes and the theory, which showed that Brazilian tech startups are using Osterwalder’s model for the reason of idea creation and testing, validating and pivoting their business model. Interestingly, the research revealed that the entrepreneurs are using the tool often not in the traditional way of printing it, but rather applying it as a thinking approach. Besides, the entrepreneurs are focusing mostly on developing a strong Value Proposition, Customer Segment and sustainable Revenue Streams, while afterwards the remaining building blocks are built. Moreover, the research showed that the startups are using also other concepts, such as the Customer Development Process or Build-Measure-Learn Feedback Loop. These methodologies are often applied together with the BMC and helps to identify the most sustainable components of the business idea. Keywords: Business

It happens because startups are young companies with no financial record and most of the times without real asset to be given as collateral, therefore, with not enough credentials to apply for a conventional bank financing. Angel investors are wealthy individuals who invest not just own money, but also their expertise and knowledge in startups, also known as ventures. The objective of this research is to better comprehend the angel investment decision making process, identifying and analyzing the most important criteria that Brazilian angel investors use to decide on funding new ventures. The main research environment is Gávea Angels, the first angel association in Brazil, and on a secondary basis, investors from this researcher and his professor networking. This research is quantitative and based on a questionnaire with attributes previously defined in research performed in the USA with answers varying from 1 (not important) up to 5 (very important). The result of criteria prioritization was based on simple average followed by their standard deviation. It also compared and analyzed empirical results of this research with the findings of another relevant search conducted in the USA by Sudek (2006). Answers were based in past experiences lived by each investor and results were analyzed not just in an aggregate way but also segregated by investors seniority (given by number of investments done). This research also analyzed the most important behavioral criteria of management team. Confirming findings of other international studies, the results of this research showed that irrespective of the market, product or financial criteria, the criterion prioritized were those regarding entrepreneur and his/her management team, as it follows: (1) trustworthiness/honesty of the entrepreneur; (2) enthusiasm/commitment of the entrepreneur; (3) management team; (4) domain expertise of the entrepreneur. The criterion ‘how persistence they will be without giving up’ and ‘passion of the team’ were the most important attributes on the particular analysis of ‘management team’. The contribution of this work is to stimulate more studies of a very incipient issue in the world and mainly in Brazil, and also increase the understanding about investing in startups, bringing more insights to entrepreneurs of what matters most to investors when searching for venture capital, and also shedding light to the positive impact of this market on Brazilian economy development. / As startups, empresas nascentes geralmente atuando em uma proposta inovadora e em condições de grande incerteza, geralmente precisam de financiamento para crescer e estes novos empreendimentos frequentemente se voltam a investidores anjos como opção de capital. Isso ocorre porque as startups são jovens empresas sem maturidade de caixa e muitas vezes sem ativos reais para serem dados em garantia, logo, sem credenciais necessárias para levantar financiamentos bancários convencionais. Investidores anjo são indivíduos com grande disponibilidade de recursos financeiros que decidem investir nestes negócios de risco trazendo frequentemente não somente capital, mas também conhecimento e experiência. O objetivo deste estudo é compreender melhor o processo decisório de investimento anjo em startups, identificando e analisando quais são os critérios de investimento priorizados pelos investidores anjo brasileiros em seus investimentos em startups. O ambiente principal de pesquisa deste trabalho foi a Gávea Angels, a mais antiga associação de anjos do Brasil, e de forma secundária, os investidores da rede de contatos do pesquisador e seu orientador. Esta pesquisa foi quantitativa e baseada em resposta de questionário (survey) com o universo de atributos já levantados em pesquisa de mesmo gênero feita nos EUA com respostas variando de 1 (sem importância) até 5 (mais importante). O resultado da priorização dos critérios ocorreu mediante média simples das respostas com inclusão do seu desvio padrão. Também se comparou e analisou os dados empíricos desta pesquisa com outra de grande relevância feita nos EUA por Sudek (2006). As respostas se basearam em experiências de investimentos vividas por cada investidor anjo e os resultados foram analisados não somente de forma consolidada, mas também de forma segregada pela senioridade dos investidores (dado pelo número de investimentos feitos). Também se analisou os critérios comportamentais mais importantes do time de gestão. Em linha com grande parte dos estudos internacionais sobre o assunto, os resultados demonstraram que a despeito da importância dos critérios ligados ao mercado, produto e dados financeiro, os critérios priorizados foram aqueles ligados ao empreendedor e seu time de gestão, conforme segue: (1) confiabilidade/honestidade do empreendedor; (2) entusiasmo/comprometimento do empreendedor; (3) time de gestão; (4) expertise de domínio do empreendedor. Os critérios ‘resiliência’ e ‘paixão do time’ foram os atributos mais importantes na análise particular do ‘time de gestão’. A contribuição deste estudo está em fomentar mais pesquisas de um assunto bastante incipiente no mundo e principalmente no Brasil, e também aumentar o entendimento sobre os investimentos em startups, dando mais clareza ao empreendedor do que o investidor busca em cada venture, e também dar mais luz à importância da ‘cultura’ do investimento anjo para o financiamento de inovações que impactem positivamente o desenvolvimento do Brasil.

An extensive literature review was conducted to understand and identify the concepts of entrepreneurship, startups, and the conditions and environments that make up the startup ecosystem. In addition, particular attention was paid to entrepreneurship and startups in Berlin, specifically, and Germany in general. A qualitative study was conducted through interviews with five startups that were located in Berlin with the questionnaire designed and formulated from the literature review. The tiered entrepreneurial ecosystem domain framework was adopted to analyze and interpret the results. Content analysis was used to analyze the qualitative interviews to gather in-depth understanding, trends and insights into the startup ecosystem in Berlin. The research suggests that some improvements are still needed in Berlin’s startup ecosystem, but that it is currently an attractive destination not only for people looking to work at startups but also for entrepreneurs looking to start their own.

Startup law Brasil: o direito brasileiro rege mas desconhece as startups

Falcão, João Pontual de Arruda 09 February 2017 (has links)
Brazilian Startup Law for computing technology. The main challenge of this essay is to understand the Law applicable to Software and Internet Startups. We explore the challenges and obstacles of the economic phenomenon of the Startup company upon the Brazilian Legal System. First, in the conceptual dimension, we search the historical context and select Startup definitions from different points of view. In the sequence, we elaborate our own understanding, characterizing the Startup as a complex institutional arrangement. Second, in the juridical-legal dimension, we identify, organize and describe common legal issues related to the life cycle of the Brazilian Startups. Thirdly, in the strategic dimension, we began mapping the legal pathway of those who seek economic activity as a Startup company in our country and offer a strategic approach (diagram) to the legal issues applicable to Startups. At the end of this essay, we conclude that the Startup, as a recent economic phenomenon, has its own dynamism that Brazilian law governs but does not understand. / Submitted by João Falcão (joaoarrudafalcao@gmail.com) on 2017-03-15T21:57:04Z No. of bitstreams: 2 FGV STARTUP LAW DISSERTACAO 28 JAN VERSAO ENVIADA A BANCA E COM FICHA CATALOGRAFICA.pdf: 10141945 bytes, checksum: 57c7f95470ef82c01e239c70019986e1 (MD5) FGV STARTUP LAW DESENHO ENVIADO A BANCA.pdf: 101266 bytes, checksum: 4cd2923b6f156902b9f5cec3498623d8 (MD5) / Approved for entry into archive by Publicação Direito Rio (publicacao.direitorio@fgv.br) on 2017-03-16T13:43:54Z (GMT) No. of bitstreams: 2 FGV STARTUP LAW DISSERTACAO 28 JAN VERSAO ENVIADA A BANCA E COM FICHA CATALOGRAFICA.pdf: 10141945 bytes, checksum: 57c7f95470ef82c01e239c70019986e1 (MD5) FGV STARTUP LAW DESENHO ENVIADO A BANCA.pdf: 101266 bytes, checksum: 4cd2923b6f156902b9f5cec3498623d8 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2017-04-19T13:29:19Z (GMT).

Exploramos os desafios e obstáculos jurídicos do fenômeno econômico da empresa Startup diante do Ordenamento Jurídico Brasileiro. Primeiro, na dimensão coneitual histórica e jurídica, pesquisamos o contexto no tempo, selecionamos definições de Startup a partir de diferentes pontos de vista e elaboramos entendimento próprio, caracterizando a Startup enquanto um arranjo institucional complexo com características próprias. Segundo, na dimensão holística sistemática descritiva, identificamos e organizamos os institutos deste arranjo complexo denominado Startup em 6 áreas estratégicas. Terceiro, na dimensão visual estratégica pragmática, indicamos a via crucis jurídica de quem busca como atividade econômica a empresa Startup em nosso país e criamos um ferramental (desenho) para alinhamento das questões jurídicas aplicáveis às Startups. Ao final deste ensaio, concluímos que a Startup, enquanto fenômeno econômico recente, detém dinamismo próprio que o Direito Brasileiro rege mas desconhece.

Pretendeu-se prover uma visão processual do fenômeno de inovação na educação superior no país, significando aspectos e desafios inerentes tanto às startups quanto aos modelos tradicionais de ensino. Foram realizados levantamentos das principais práticas inovadoras que contemplam a atuação das startups, seus produtos e serviços oferecidos, bem como entrevistas com empreendedores do setor e educadores do Ensino Superior. Concluiu-se que há muito sendo feito em termos de inovação em ensino, mas que ainda existe uma lacuna entre o que é oferecido pelas startups e o que as Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) enxergam como necessário. Ressalta-se que embora a tecnologia tenha papel fundamental na dinâmica de inovação existem ainda os desafios relativos à infraestrutura para colocar em prática as inovações desejadas. Verificou-se também que o processo de inovação em educação é multifacetado, com características peculiares à cada contexto educacional mas que, no entanto, existem questões comuns à formação de professores e apoio institucional. O estudo pretende contribuir com debates já existentes sobre inovação em educação e o fenômeno das startups, a fim de promover uma reflexão sobre os caminhos da inovação em ensino nos modelos tradicionais do Ensino Superior, a partir contexto dos avanços tecnológicos. / This study is the result of a research carried out with the objective of investigating the influence of education startups in traditional teaching models, specifically in relation to higher education and its process of innovation in education. It was intended to provide a procedural vision of the phenomenon of innovation in higher education in the country, meaning aspects and challenges inherent to both startups and traditional models of education. Surveys were carried out of the main innovative practices that include startups, their products, and services offered, as well as interviews with entrepreneurs in the sector and higher education educators. It has been concluded that much has been done in terms of innovation in education, but there is still a gap between what is offered by startups and what Higher Education Institutions (IES) see as necessary. It should be noted that while technology plays a key role in innovation dynamics, there are also infrastructure challenges to implement the desired innovations. It was also verified that the process of innovation in education is multifaceted, with characteristics peculiar to each educational context but, nevertheless, there are common issues to teacher training and institutional support. The study intends to contribute to existing debates on innovation in education and the phenomenon of startups, in order to promote a reflection on the paths of innovation in teaching in traditional models, from the context of technological advances.
