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?

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
