Analysis of Start-Up Share Valuation on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2017-2022 Period Using the DFC GMV and Tobins'q Methods

The phenomenon of the proliferation of startup companies in Indonesia that cannot be separated from the use of digital technology brings a fragrant aroma to venture capital investment companies. The number of startup companies that received the investment funds are bringing them to the Indonesian Stock Exchange by conducting an IPO even though the company has not been established for a long time. There is a correlation between the rapid growth of startups in Indonesia with "bubble.com" the phenomenon that occurred in Silicon Valley between the years 1999 and 2000. The surge in assets of startup companies is currently caused by stock valuation, which is based on a single valuation, without assessing assets, cash flows, or other aspects that affect the valuation value of a company. Recently, the stock price of startup companies began to fall, and is considered the same as the phenomenon "bubble.com" another indication is that there are mass layoffs of company employees; this condition also occurs in Silicon Valley. In this case, it is necessary to conduct an intrinsic assessment of startup shares empirically and in accordance with applicable valuation standards to see the condition of the company as a whole. The valuation methods used in this study are Gross Merchandise Value, Discounted Cash Flow and Tobins'q, it is expected that these three methods can represent the valuation analysis of the company so that investors know the intrinsic value of startup companies and are expected not to be Overvalued.

Usability Evaluation of a Fintech Lending Mobile Application for University Student: A Case Study

The rapid development of information technology has changed various sector of our life, including economy. A number of startup companies in Indonesia has been utilized technology to deliver financial services to its customer. One of them attempts to answerthe needs of university students in Indonesia for an alternative source of funding, who develop a lending mobile application for student. An initial study using interview and secondary data found that the users still find difficulties to use the mobile application. Usability is one approach that can be used to minimize the problem. The purpose of this study is to increase a fintech mobile application’s usability by conducting evaluation of several features including, 'creating a new account', 'completing profile registration', 'applying for university tuition lending', and 'applying for goods lending.' Usability evaluation was conducted by testing the effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction through a set of remote usability testing involving 20 participants. The results shows that the mobile application is not optimized in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction as yet. Using the Concept Generation Method, 21 recommendations were proposed to increase the usability of the lending mobile application.

National Innovation System of Israel at the Beginning of the 21st Century

Difficult geopolitical circumstances and natural resources scarcity laid down the vector of science and technology development of Israel. The only “natural resource” that was and still is in plenty — high-qualified human resource. As for today, Israel takes the first place in the world having its state support of public R&D as a per cent of GDP (4.5 per cent), the number of startup companies concerning population and quantity of researchers. Russia is interested in Israeli experience in the formation of a national innovation system (NIS) because of the same high state influence on the economics in this country. Powers of the state in Israel through the agency of the Office of the Chief Scientist (OCS) stimulate a wide variety of applied R&D and upon that do not prescribe the market how to develop but use targeted funding and state programs to reward the development of priority branches. In Russia, as opposed to Israel, the powers of state aim to play a vital role in chosen market segments, therefore suppressing the development of small enterprises. If in Israeli innovation economics the central place is occupied by the startup companies, in Russia, in the opposite, at the innovation market dominate the massive state-owned enterprises, restraining innovation processes that shift into low gear without business initiative. Israeli experience can be used in such innovation economics’ sectors as state support of innovations; technology transfer organization; commercialization of technologies, elaborated in Research and Development Establishment and universities; formation of international scientific and technological cooperation system; using of dual technologies; training of innovation managers.

A Critical Contrast between Technology and Society in Israel

The effects of technological change are creating immense transformations in the way nations organize their competitive structure. The research looks at the impact and role of governments in technological development as a means to examine the state of each country in terms of technological advancement and global competition. Israel is a prime example of the domination of technology over society. The country’s development is a product of the digital revolution and economic changes, which situate Israel as a developed country in terms of technology. The question that stands at the heart of this research is, based on the Israeli experience: how technology is changing society? In order to examine this, the research is looking at the impact of technological advancement and the role of the Israeli government in the development of technology. It examines the way Israel has developed to a “Start-Up Nation”, with the largest number of start-up companies globally, second only to the USA.

Current Commentary Recent Developments in Solar Energy Applications based on Perovskites: A Current Commentary.

Introduction Perovskite solar cells were the subject of a current commentary, previously published in this journal (1) These are solar cells whose structure utilises a perovskite-type compound as the light-harvesting active layer (1). The term 'perovskite solar cell' originates from the ABX3 stoichiometry of the absorber materials, which translates to a perovskite crystal structure (Figure 1). The most extensively studied absorber material is methylammonium lead trihalide (C[H.sub.3]N[H.sub.3]Pb[X.sub.3]; where X is a CI, Br or I atom), with a bandgap energy in the range of 1.5-2.3 eV. The related material, formamidinum lead trihalide ([H.sub.2]NCFTN[H.sub.2]Pb[X.sub.3]) is also promising, with bandgaps that occupy the range 1.5-2.2 eV. Indeed, since the smallest bandgap approaches more closely the optimum value for a single-junction cell than does methylammonium lead trihalide, it is expected that higher efficiencies might be attained using these materials (2). It has been shown that the bandgap in the methylammonium lead halides can be tuned by varying the halide content, and (2,3) that the diffusion lengths for both holes and electrons in these materials are greater than 1 micron (4). The latter feature means that charges can be transported over long distances in the perovskite, and the materials are effective in thin-film architectures. The charges per se have been demonstrated to comprise predominantly free electrons and holes, and are not bound excitons. This is a consequence of the fact that the binding energy for excitons is sufficiently low that charge separation can occur at room temperature (5). [FIGURE 1 OMITTED] The rise in power conversion efficiencies of solar cells based on perovskite materials has been little short of meteoric, considering that just 3.8% was achieved in 2009 (6) but this had climbed to 22.1% in early 2016 (7) (Figure 2). Working on the premise that even higher efficiencies should be attainable and that the production costs of perovskite solar cells are relatively low, they have attracted sufficient commercial interest that a number of start-up companies have expressed their intention to be selling actual photovoltaic modules by 2017 (8,9). In view of the potential widespread importance of perovskite solar cells in the future, it is most appropriate to include mention of them in undergraduate courses. To this end, a very timely account has been published which demonstrates how a simple such cell can be constructed for the purposes of practical demonstration (10). Production of perovskite solar cells The processing of and fabrication of perovskite solar cells is considerably less demanding than is the case for the more usual silicon-based cells, for which costly multistep processes are necessary, needing to be carried out in a clean room, involving high vacuum facilities, and temperatures in excess of 1000[degrees]C (11). In contrast, organic-inorganic perovskites can be produced using wet chemistry techniques under standard laboratory conditions. Thus, it has proved possible to synthesise the above mentioned methylammonium and formamidinium lead trihalides by means of various solvent-based and vapour deposition methods, with the indication that future production on the large scale should be possible (12,13). Despite the attractive simplicity of the method, solution processing leaves voids, platelets, and other defects in the perovskite layer, which might act to impede the photovoltaic efficiency of the cell. To avoid such problems, a method has been presented (14) that produces perovskite films with both a large crystal dimension and a smooth structure, with more advantageous light conversion efficiencies. An alternative approach, which involves solvent-solvent extraction at ambient temperature, enables the generation of crystalline films which cover an area of several square centimetres, in a controlled fashion, down to a thickness of 20 nanometers, and without creating pin-holes. …
