“…The general application of ''buy and build'' or ''inorganic growth'' strategies in order to generate value is thereby already well known from the private equity domain (Hammer et al 2017), however, in a less aggressive manner. In practice, the aggressive inorganic growth strategy can be observed for example in the case of Snapdeal, an Indian e-commerce company, which acquired 7 companies in 7 months in 2015 backed up by previous big ticket investments (Tiwari et al 2019).…”

The number of ventures with a market value of one billion USD or more has considerably increased during the last decade. Driven by new technologies and business models, these ventures became an integral part of our daily life. Particularly, the number of unicorns based in China and other regions outside the US raised during recent years whereas the phenomenon was initially limited to the US region. Existing research has mainly focused on descriptive approaches to examine the rise of these ventures but lacks knowledge on the drivers of this phenomenon. We address these research gaps and investigate the underlying factors that foster the emergence of such high-valued ventures. Our results present several economic environmental as well as investor-related factors that impact the likelihood for a venture to achieve a market valuation of more than one billion USD. Subsequently, we derive theoretical and practical implications that may foster the future emergence of new high-valued ventures, covering regulatory, investor-and venturespecific aspects.

India's higher education landscape has significantly transformed over the past few years. Most reforms during this time have significantly impacted the country's rapidly expanding Private Higher Education Institutions (PrHEIs). As a result, this sector has witnessed significant growth in recent years, offering alternative routes for students seeking quality education beyond the traditional Public Higher Education Institutions (PuHEIs). This paper aims to explore the challenges and prospects PrHEIs face in India. The desk research was conducted to review existing literature on the topic. We analysed academic articles, research studies, and reports that discuss the challenges and prospects of private higher education in India. This provides a theoretical framework and a foundation of knowledge on the subject. With over two million students, private HEIs currently make up over 40% of the Indian HE sector. The rising demand for high-quality education has contributed to the tremendous growth of private higher education in India in recent years. Private higher education in India faces several challenges such as Access and Affordability, Quality of Learning and Teaching, Regulatory Barriers, Research and Innovation.Despite these obstacles, private higher education in India has a bright future, with the potential to work with governmental programmes and utilise modern technology.
