The proposed conceptual theoretical model is being tested empirically using a data comprises of 282 founders/owners of start-up companies, collected through structures questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is carried out for model fitness and structural equation modelling for path regression analysis. The results of the study are presented in the later sections.
