We propose that by simulating the startup eco-system as a Brownian motion model with data driven drift and diffusion parameters analogous to methods used in stock analysis, we can provide more rigour and insight in this challenging decision-making scenario.

Given that the model is analogous to a well understood physical system that has quantum effects, we will also show that this method is amenable to using more computationally competitive quantum algorithms that have the potential to solve larger scale and currently intractable scenarios.
