Start-ups are an attractive topic for research because they are a relatively new and very dynamic business form. They carry out original business ideas, provide a space for self-realization of independent personalities, bring extra earnings, but most of them fail. The aim of the research was to examine whether the business model and start-up team like two basic assumptions are really some reasons of the viability and later potential start-up success. The result of the research is a knowledge on the structure and functionality of the start-up business model and start-up team. The viability of the start-up had been measured in shape of its business performance. An intensity and structure of the relationships between performance of start-up and its business model and team should confirm its capability to survive and thrive. These relationships are modelled on the base of regression analysis. The research has largely confirmed the existence of desired relationships to a certain extent, but the effect of the studied preconditions is internally considerably differentiated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
