National Finance Summit 2016

Theme : Startup valuations: A reality or a work of fiction

• Unicorn is a popular term that's used to describe tech startups worth $1

billion. But there are many of these proliferating right, left and center and are

abundant in Silicon Valley.

• As of January 2016, there were 229 unicorns across all tech sectors, with

$ 175 billion in funding and $ 1.3 trillion valuation; there were 112 in

mobile Internet alone. There are so many companies with sky-high

valuations of $10 billion or more that the industry has come up with a

whole new name to describe them. Bloomberg Business has christened

these companies Decacorns.

• Of the 112, there's a growing slew of decacorns including Airbnb, Dropbox,

Pinterest, Snapchat, Uber, Flipkart. Uber's latest funding round values it at

around $51 billion. Sitting behind the valuations is often a complex

structure of investor guarantees and multiple share classes that

disguises the real value of common shares.

• How investors and founders derive those enormous valuations through

some fuzzy math is a question on everyone’s mind.

• Disruptive or not, is there something that their backers are seeing that those

in the rational investing world, they who assess companies on the present

value of their future earnings, aren’t.

• Aren’t these numbers too huge for the companies who haven’t even

started generating profits?

Bubble Burst?




Expected Outcomes from the Session

India has emerged at No. 2 in startups incubated in a year, second only to the U.S,

and India’s startup ecosystem has gained recognition in the global financial world.

In this backdrop, The National Finance Summit 2016, attempts to bring

together industry viewpoints on the following topics:

Analysing current investment scenario for startups

in India and its impact on startups. Identifying the

role of government and other financial and non-

financial institution to boost investing via initiatives

such as Startup India

1.

Analyzing the increasing role of Investment

Banking in case of mezzanine funding, PE funding

and M&As of startups. What is it that is turning

investors cautious about Indian start-ups

3.

Analyzing the interest of traditional banks in funding of

Financial technology startups. This new generation

of tech upstarts is appealing to big banks with

financially-focused apps, software and systems.

How this will help to avoid a potential faceoff

between the two ?

4.

Understanding the metrics behind valuation of

startups and analyzing the trends of Pre-IPO profit

booking v/s Post-IPO stock performance of recently

listed startups

2.
