In an effort to better understand the role of branding for Kosovo’s start-ups, this study provides qualitative insight obtained directly from start-ups’ representatives to identify whether start-ups in Kosovo recognize branding as an important component of their development process. This study identifies branding efforts utilized by the start-ups and analyzes the correlation between these efforts and the brand awareness of their brand.
