| description | Currently, the world is highly dependent on technological advancements and innovations (TAI)
being the key driver of economic growth, competitiveness, and overall societal progress. And high-tech
startups are at the forefront of TAI, developing new products and services that meet the growing needs
of consumers. Over the past decades, the quantity and quality of startups have increased significantly,
however, they are still known for high risks and low success rates, which often lead to financial losses
for investors and startup founders. Therefore, the aim of the study was to develop a dynamic decisionmaking framework for evaluating the market potential and success rates of innovative startups throughout
their lifecycle on the basis of a marketing research approach using R programming language to provide a unique solution for startup founders, investors, business incubators, startup accelerators, tech hubs,
etc. As a result, a new methodology for evaluating the market potential and success rates of innovative
startups was proposed based on T. L. Saaty’s analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methodology. Taking
into account the fact that AHP is based on expert opinions, it was proposed to divide experts into
five groups – scientific specialists, investors representatives, manufacturers representatives, practicing
startup entrepreneurs, business incubators & startup accelerators representatives. Each group of experts
determined the degrees of preference between the proposed criteria and sub-criteria of each of the three
components of startup attractiveness – market, marketing and investment attractiveness of the startup
project. The decision-making framework was created and tested in the RStudio software environment
based on the ‘ahp’ package and can be used by startup founders, investors, and other stakeholders on a
regular basis as new information about their projects becomes available. |
