Startup Valuation Determinants: Examining the Economic Value of German Startups from a Strategic Theory Perspective
The pre-money valuation of startups, as their performance indicator, is critical in entrepreneurial financing, which in turn is significantly shaped by the firm's internal resources. This paper analyzes an integrated theoretical framework to examine whether the valuation of startups can be explained by strategic and firm-level factors identified by Barney's (1991) Resource-Based Theory (RBT) as critical to firm performance. Empirical results from the analyses of 142 German startups support the theory that investors consider important factors to startups' performance in their valuation. Implications of the study involve further research on the impact of social and financial capital within human and physical resources and establishes different determinants important to raise different types of funds-venture capital, angel, seed, and grant-in tech and non-tech startups.
Determinants of Youth Unemployment in India
India's youth unemployment rose from 15.5% in 1991 to 23% in 2019. This period also witnessed a declining trend in India's youth to working-age population ratio from 33% to 27%. These statistics are aligned with the existing studies which postulate that if the working-age segment has a large proportion of youth in the age group of 15 to 24 years, it will lead to a high unemployment rate. Given such a context, this paper aims to examine and estimate the demographic, monetary and macroeconomic factors influencing India's rising youth unemployment, with the help of Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach to cointegration. This study also brings in a new dimension to the existing studies by providing an in-depth analysis of the role of millennials cohort, which entered the working-age segment in 1995, in contributing to India's rising youth unemployment. A disaggregated analysis of India's youth unemployment based on the criteria of education and gender has also been carried out.
Determinants of Elementary Education Expenditure in Uttar Pradesh: An Empirical Investigation
This study analyzes the disparities in household expenditure on education up to the elementary level in Uttar Pradesh (UP). It analyzes social status defining variables along with some household environment variables in the most populous state of India. This study focuses on the role of caste, class (economic class), and their interactions in influencing the household education expenditure with respect to localities/sector, gender and type of schools in UP. It used secondary data from the 71st round of the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO). A total of 36,479 urban and 29,447 rural households having children aged 5-29 years, receiving any type of education were surveyed. Using 'Tobit model', it finds inequality existing at different levels. The study suggests strengthening of the economic structure of lower income classes (irrespective of caste) by providing more employment opportunities and continuing financial support, and also trying to implement a universal curriculum structure in all types of schools. Further, there is a need to strengthen the management system and ensure the accountability of teachers in government schools.

Hence, there is a need to apply techniques that are available.
An Interview With Professor Bandi Kamaiah
The literature on first-generation college students reveals that owing to the lack of agency and the social and cultural capital deemed necessary to be successful, they face many challenges and structural barriers on their path to higher education. But that had no bearing on a young student of class X, the son of a tenant farmer, called Kamaiah, who indeed was the first in the family to hope, dream, and aspire for higher education.
