Question 1 · TEXT

Quality of the summary:

Does the summary make the key focus, insights and/or contribution of the article clear? Yes, it gives a good background and introduction to the topic.

What would you suggest to improve?

Answer 1

Yes, it gives a good background and introduction to the topic. However it does not clearly state what the article will focus on. Maybe the methods described later on, e.g. SWOT analysis should be mentioned in the introduction. The theme is clearly introduce however it is not clear on which aspect of it the article is going to focus on.

Question 2 · TEXT

Structure and logic of the article:

Is the argument clear?

Is there a logical flow to the article?

Does one part build upon the other?

Is the article consistent in its argument and free of contradictions?

What would you suggest to improve?

Answer 2

The topic is clear, although it may be a little more precise. The flow between the topics is fluent. In my opinion, the article lacks clear structure. After reading an introduction I am not sure what to expect. To make it a little more scientific maybe introduction of some examples, e.g. what are those risk factors for new start-ups, how can they be categorised, etc. would make it more clear.

Question 3 · TEXT

Grammar and style:

Is the writing free of grammatical and spelling errors?

Is the language precise without unnecessary fill words?

What would you suggest to improve?

In general it is very good. Try being a little bit more specific. Some small mistakes (e.g. using 'what' instead of 'which').

Question 6 · TEXT
