Abstract The start-up ecosystem has become an important component of regional economic development, particularly in relation to employment creation, entrepreneurial activity and innovation-led business growth. In this context, the present study examines the contribution of start-ups in creating employment opportunities in Rajasthan. The study is based on a quantitative research approach and uses primary data collected from 165 respondents associated with the start-up ecosystem, including founders/owners, managers/HR persons, employees and local stakeholders. The study considered start-up growth/development score, employment opportunity generation score and role of start-ups in employment generation score as the major construct-level measures. Statistical analysis was conducted through descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation and simple linear regression. The findings indicate that respondents held a moderately positive perception of start-up growth and its contribution to employment opportunities. Significant differences were found across respondent categories regarding the perceived role of start-ups in employment generation. The results also showed a positive association between start-up growth/development and employment opportunity generation, while regression analysis indicated that start-up growth significantly influenced employment generation. The study highlights the relevance of start-ups as emerging contributors to employment development in Rajasthan and suggests the need for stronger support mechanisms to improve their employment potential.
