Resumo: The present master thesis regards the development a theoretical framework which is an algorithm with the goal of predicting start-ups business model’s success potential. It was designed to support entrepreneurs understanding better what venture capitalists and business angels (VC/BA) take into consideration for predicting start-ups’ success. ISC stands for Idea, Story and Context which are considered the main drivers towards start-ups’ business model success prediction by the model. This study has tested this framework on three real case-study start-ups to compare how the framework rates the three start-ups in comparison with business savvy people, such as VC/BA investors and management students. For doing this study, the framework leveraged an online platform named Business Model Composer®, an online platform for communicating business models using state-of-the-art research on business models’ topics. Finally, it is suggested how such algorithm could be integrated into an online tool to support entrepreneurs swiftly.

O algoritmo foi concebido de forma a apoiar os empreendedores entenderem melhor o que capitalistas de risco (VC) e business angels (BA) têm em consideração para antever sucesso de start-ups. ISC significa Idea, Story e Context que são considerados pelo modelo os principais fatores conducentes à previsão de sucesso de um modelo de negócio de uma start-up. Este estudo testou essa estrutura em três casos de estudo start-ups reais, afim de comparar a forma como a framework classifica estas três start-ups vis-à-vis com pessoas experientes em negócios, como investidores VC/BA e estudantes de gestão. Para fazer este estudo, o algoritmo aproveitou uma plataforma online chamada Business Model Composer® que visa comunicar modelos de negócio e que se baseia em investigação na área de modelos de negócios. Por fim, sugere-se como poderia tal algoritmo ser integrado numa ferramenta online para ajudar empreendedores de forma clara e imediata.Bohnsack, RenéVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaBarros, Salvador Burnay2016-12-13T14:48:31Z2016-10-1820162016-10-18T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/21016TID:201283620enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:27:03Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/21016Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:17:27.625233Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
