Abstract

Youth play a vital role in driving innovation, economic development, and entrepreneurial growth. With increasing government initiatives, technological advancement, and digital accessibility, young individuals are actively participating in start-up activities across various sectors. This study examines the level of youth involvement in start-ups and analyses its impact on entrepreneurial growth. The research adopts a descriptive design and collects primary data from 400 young respondents through a structured questionnaire. The findings indicate that innovation mindset, risk-taking ability, digital skills, and access to financial support significantly influence start-up participation. The study concludes that strengthening entrepreneurial education, mentorship, and funding support can enhance youth-led start-up growth and contribute to sustainable economic development.
