VENTURE FINANCING OF DEEP TECH STARTUPS
Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Kyiv, Marchenko M. M.
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to researching the mechanisms of venture financing of deep tech (deep technologies) startups at each stage of the investment chain. Venture and private funds, limited partners, corporations, governments, and public institutions face the complexity of interacting with and understanding deep tech. Investments in the sector are growing, but deep tech startups often find it difficult to transition from grant funding to equity capital. Despite the increase in funding, businesses face the need for multiple rounds of grant funding to attract the attention of venture capital funds. The existing investment model limits deep tech enterprises aimed at solving significant global challenges. Problems include the difficulties of transition from the laboratory stage to commercialization, the uneven distribution of venture funding and the lack of state support for deep tech, which is a potentially important tool for solving the world's global problems. Deep tech holds significant potential for scientific discoveries and technological breakthroughs, but investing in this sector remains a challenge. Despite the increasing volume of venture investments, deep tech startups have faced a number of challenges that limit their development and affect the entire investment ecosystem. The problems of deep tech startups include the complicated transition from grant funding to venture capital and the uneven distribution of investments between different sectors and regions. This leads to the fact that many promising ideas and technologies are left out of attention and funding. Despite record levels of "dry powder" venture capital, securing funding for deep tech remains problematic. Investors should rethink their approaches, ensuring a more efficient allocation of capital to ensure the development of a wide range of deep tech. According to research, deep tech startups face rejection from general venture funds due to their high technical risks and long payback periods. In addition, limited partners and corporations may lack the skills and flexibility to successfully work with deep tech enterprises. The diversity of investments by sector and region, as well as uneven access to capital, indicates the need for a balanced and innovation-oriented resource allocation strategy. Governments and public institutions play a key role in creating favorable conditions for deep tech startups through grants, research support and infrastructure creation. It is necessary to create a favorable investment environment by enhancing collaboration between participants in the financial ecosystem and simplifying the process of attracting capital for deep tech startups. In general, investing in deep tech requires rethinking the investment strategy, in-depth understanding of the sector and creating conditions for the growth of deep tech startups as a key tool for solving modern global challenges.

The introduction of modern economic market relations in Ukraine has set society many important tasks, one of which is the search for new forms and methods of managing the production and sale of goods or services. Under these conditions, a complex, systematic approach to solving this or that economic problem becomes especially important. When developing a complex system of management of economic activity, it is advisable to use the experience of the organization of management, accumulated both in our country and abroad. In this regard, new information technologies based on the use of computer technology, distributed (decentralized) information processing, and economic-mathematical methods are of particular interest. Today, we are witnessing the global transformation of the entire earthly civilization - the transition from an industrial society to an information society. Until now, there is no clearly defined concept of optimal information provision of enterprises, the end product of which is the provision of services and the performance of certain tasks, that is, an intangible type of product. Therefore, the development of a defined system of information support of management bodies should be preceded by a deep analysis of both the economic activity of such an enterprise and the existing situation with information support. The scientific article describes the approaches of using MC Project and other modern programs for evaluating the effectiveness of business processes. It was found that Microsoft Project Standard is the main tool for project management, including for planning and forming project execution schedules. In combination with the Microsoft Project Server server, it allows you to organize collective work on the project in the scope of one working group. The availability of powerful tools makes it possible to flexibly adapt programs to automatically perform mass calculations, which depend both on the specifics of a specific area of accounting and on the peculiarities of the accounting policy of the enterprise. At the same time, the specified tools not only allow changing individual parameters, such as, for example, codes of accounts, subaccounts, analytical accounts, their names, tax rates, etc., but also allow you to describe and modify the rules for performing calculations quite completely. Proposed ways of improving the information support of management activities, which will allow to reveal its external and internal features and formation and use, determine its characteristics, which will allow to increase the efficiency of information support of management activities.

It determined a significant number of types and variations of marketing management on business practice. To distinguish basic scenarios of company’s marketing management development the author applied hierarchical and facet methods of objects systematization. The hierarchical method is defined a sequential division of sets of objects into subsets that gradually creates a unified system where all elements are interconnected and have a branched structure from general to specific ones. The facet method is characterized by a parallel division of objects into separate groups or facets. Simultaneous use of these two systematization methods enables to distinguish basic scenarios of company’s marketing management development, where at the top detalization levels the hierarchical method is realized, and at the bottom levels – the facet method. At the stage of analyzing marketing management variations were distinguished economic, marketing and management approaches to administration of companies in different branches. These approaches combine fourteen criteria and correlate with the directions of studies, which determined appearance of marketing management. The economic approach includes four systematization criteria: by initiator of marketing management implementation, by object, by coverage and by targeting. The marketing approach includes four systematization criteria: by activity specific, by scope, by application level and by stage of life cycle. The management approach includes six systematization criteria: by the way of realization, by ethics, by influence method, by intensity, by development style and by term of realization. Each of above mentioned categories is divided into components that forms the third system level. The proposed hierarchic-facet system of basic scenarios will give companies the opportunities: 1) to perform a complex diagnostic of their marketing management state; 2) to evaluate variants of development of each separate object; 3) to define developmental prospects of different scenarios; 4) to implement optimal variant (modification) of marketing management into business processes.

Published: April 2024

У сучасних системах відеоспостереження використовуються методи глибокого навчання. Такі рішення створюють багато задач, особливо доступності обчислювальних ресурсів. З появою підходів глибокого навчання ці задачі стали ще складнішими, це через те, що алгоритми глибокого навчання базуються на штучних нейронних мережах і потребують багато специфічних ресурсів, таких як відеокарти (графічні обчислювальні пристрої). Для подолання цих задач пропонуються рішення, які вимагають меншого використання ресурсів. Це передбачає додавання алгоритму виявлення руху, що призводить до обмеження подальших обчислень лише до зони інтересу, тобто області, що містить людей, автомобілі тощо. У цій статті пропонується модель розпізнавання облич на основі алгоритму виявлення руху для нерухомих камер відеоспостереження. Дослідження спрямоване лише на людей і не охоплює всі типи об'єктів.

З’ясовані ознаки, які вказують на негативні емоції та стрес, пов’язані з неможливістю придбати її, що в подальшому здатне впливатина психологічне і фізичне здоров’я споживача.

Встановлено, що рекламні стратегії, такі як використання відомих особистостей та присутність у соціальних мережах стимулюватиме попит на брендові речі також, призводитиме до збільшення витрат і надмірних очікувань. А використання маніпулятивних технік впливу реклами на споживача, підштовхує їх до покупки, створення штучної необхідності продукту, використання емоційного впливу, підсилення соціального тиску або створення ілюзії ексклюзивності. Більшість споживачів розглядають покупку брендової річчі як засіб підтримки свого статусу та ідентичності, що призводить до залежності від матеріальних речей та втрати автентичності. Окреслено перспективи подальших дослідження для вивчення впливубрендового споживання на соціальні відносини та емоційний стан споживачів для розробки ефективних інтервенцій.

Published: April 2024

Protons are gaining increasing attention as neurotransmitters due to their extraordinary abilities to rapidly transfer electrical charge, mobilize cellular calcium and modulate ion channels. How all this is possible is currently the subject of in-depth studies and discussions concerning not only neurophysiology, but also biological materials for artificial intelligence.

This review describes some biochemical mechanisms by which protons, in combination with calcium, can initiate firing in sensory neurons and transmit impulses across synapses. Furthermore, mechanisms are put forward concerning how neurotransmitters, particularly glutamate, gamma-aminobutyric acid, adenosine triphosphate and acetylcholine, are able to generate protons.

The results of the numerous experimental works taken into consideration indicate that protons can play a fundamental role both in the generation and in the transmission of the sensory nerve impulse.

Learner satisfaction is a crucial element to quality learning and a determinant of learner's overall academic achievement. This study aimed to assess the level of learner satisfaction with teaching and learning, determine the level of importance learners place on teaching and learning, and determine influence of satisfaction on academic achievement in public secondary schools in Kisumu East Sub- County, Kenya. The study was a mix of a descriptive survey and correlational research design. Data was collected with the aid of a structured questionnaire. Proportional stratified sampling was used to identify 303 respondents. The respondents comprised of 128 males and 175 females. Eighty-seven of the respondents were aged 18 years and a total of 78 learners accounting to 25.71% of the total respondents had a mean grade of C+. Overall learner satisfaction was 4.11. Respondents reported highest satisfaction with aspects related to teacher – learner instruction and teacher competence with reported mean satisfaction of 4.27 and 4.12 respectively. Learners were least satisfied with aspects related to learning facilities with mean satisfaction value of 3.97. Learners reported least satisfaction with the equipment of library and laboratory facilities. Sixty-five percent of the learners considered teacher mastery of content and use of different instructional techniques very important while eighty- seven percent of the respondents agreed on the importance of examination being in line with content taught in class. The quadrant analysis showed that aspects related to teacher – learner relationship were considered to be of high importance to the learner and resulted in a high level of satisfaction. Regression analysis showed a significant positive correlation r= 0.233 (_p=0.002_) between learner satisfaction and academic achievement. These findings underscore the importance of investing in teacher quality and maintaining a conducive learning environment to enhance learner satisfaction and, ultimately, academic achievement. Recommendations are made to the ministry to invest in teacher training and development to enhance teacher competence, approachability, and interaction with learners, as these factors significantly influence learner satisfaction. In addition, there is need for adequate resource allocation towards the improvement of library and laboratory facilities to create a better learning environment for the students.

Granulomatous mastitis is a chronic, benign and inflammatory disease of the breasts from idiopatic etiology. It usually appears in women until 5 years after giving birth.
The main hypothesis explains an autoimmune phenomenon as a result of expelled antigens from the breast-feeding period.Its clinical expression varies a lot, ranging from mastitis, fistulas or nodules. Usually it is seen as a hard nodule in any of the breast quadrants.Due to the fact that granulomatous mastitis clinically resembles inflammatory breast cancer, the diagnosis becomes challenging, needing different radiological tests as well as histiopatological samples for the final diagnosis.
The treatment is not well established, and the two main options are complete escision of the breast or corticoesteroids with methotrexate. Even with this treatment, in half of cases the disease chronifies.
What is evolving in an economy?
Authors: Tambovtsev V. L.
Published: April 2024

Modern evolutionary economics consists of several areas of research that differ significantly both in objects and research methods. One of these areas includes in its tasks the search for evidence that changes occurring in the economy are similar to those that were studied in Darwin’s theory of the living nature’s evolution. The article poses and solves two main tasks: firstly, to demonstrate the incorrectness of the interpretation of “Generalized Darwinism” as a model of evolution, the features of which coincide with the original Darwinian understanding, and, secondly, to show that in economics it is really possible to identify objects in which changes occur in a way close to what was discovered by Charles Darwin. It is shown that “Generalized Darwinism” is in fact a model of those types of evolution that are not Darwinian. At the same time, it has been demonstrated that in economics it is indeed possible to distinguish subsystems called “systems for creating product families,” whose properties are similar to fruit plants, and changes are carried out through natural Darwinian selection. The final part presents directions in which the use of the proposed approach can make a certain contribution to further development of evolutionary economics.
PREVENTING AND COMBATING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: INTERNATIONAL LEGAL APPROACHES IN THE CONTEXT OF THE APPLICATION OF SECURITY MEASURES
Authors:   Penitentiary Academy of Ukraine,  Chernihiv, Ukraine, Vysotska N.V.
Published: April 2024

The article examines international legal approaches to preventing and countering domestic violence, including in the context of the existence of the institution of restrictive measures. It was established that today in the field of human rights protection, states bear not only negative obligations – not to prevent the exercise of certain human rights, but also positive obligations – in particular, to take measures to prevent and counter domestic violence, to investigate all manifestations of domestic violence as situations that require close attention and pose a serious danger. The author draws attention to the fact that international institutions proceed from the postulate that the criminal-legal response to manifestations of domestic violence should not be limited in nature: it should concern not only the perpetrators of domestic violence, but also the victims, to whom security measures should be applied. In particular, the result of the work of the Council of Europe in the fight against domestic violence was the adoption on May 11, 2011 of the Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, which was ratified by Ukraine only this year. The so-called Istanbul Convention obliges states to take measures to ensure that adequate restraining or protective orders are available to victims of all forms of violence. The author came to the conclusion that the international community is several steps ahead of Ukrainian society and legislators in terms of awareness of the acuteness and importance of the problems of domestic violence and legal response to it. Key words: domestic violence, security measures, international legal approaches to preventing and combating domestic violence, restrictive measures, positive obligations of states to prevent and combat domestic violence, the Istanbul Convention.

The article is devoted to the formation of propositions about establishing a digital ombudsman`s institution as a mechanism for effective realization of human information and digital rights. It is emphasized that many cases of violations of human information and digital rights are in practice in modern conditions. In this regard it is necessity to improve the institution mechanism of human information and digital rights providing for safely human`s being in digital and information environments. Author vision of human digital and information rights as interrelated and interdepended human rights categories which define human activity in digital and information environments and provide for several related human rights in any sphere of activity is formed, propositions about establishment of the digital ombudsman`s institution are also proved. This idea was supported by many respondents conducted by an author’s poll. Digital ombudsman`s powers will be included: 1) accepting applications from citizens about human digital and information rights violations; 2) sending citizen`s applications to authorized bodies (if necessary); 3) writing year`s reports about facts human digital and information rights violations and results of elimination of indicated disadvantages; 4) increasing level of digital and information citizen`s knowledge; 5) organization events of legal education for Ukrainian citizens in spheres of digital and information rights; 6) control, coordination and development recommendations of improvement activity of subjects who provide digital and information security of Ukraine; 7) making nationality law base in spheres of digital and information rights according to international standards; 8) developing international cooperation in spheres of human digital and information rights.

Published: April 2024

In the article, based on the probabilistic prognosis methodology, probabilistic indicators of the number of thefts in post-war Ukraine are calculated. There is the most powerful factors influencing acquisitive crime taking into account. The task is complicated by the reduced ability to obtain accurate socially significant information in wartime conditions, and this data greatly influences the accuracy of the prognosis. Prognostication under martial law is difficult when choosing a scenario that requires accurate input data, and the scenario approach calls into question the accuracy of the prognosis within the selected scenario. In this case, an option was chosen that seemed promising and is based on the use of probabilistic statistical methods, which are closely related to randomness. The dynamics of the postwar number of thefts should certainly be influenced by the state of alcohol abuse among criminals, as well as the likelihood of drug and other intoxicant abuse among criminals. And these probabilities also need to be forecasted. If during the war this indicator among the general population increased by one third and up to 11%, respectively, then after the war it should decrease among the general population and increase among the unemployed population, whose share will increase. As a result, it was found that a catastrophic scenario is unlikely, since the probable quantitative indicators of the number of thefts will be within the range of up to 5% of the indicator for the number of delinquent projected population of the country, equality to which or exceeding which would lead the development scenario exponentially, that is, completely uncontrolled development path. It has been established that the most favorable prognosis of the number of thefts in post-war Ukraine makes it possible to eliminate panic in this matter. However, the probabilistic prognosis does not exclude the possibility of exponential growth of this type of criminal offense in post-war Ukraine over the course of 4–5 years. Key words: probability, war, theft, crime, prognostication, factor.
