Biggest mistake that founders can make is falling into the Startup Death Trap. 1. Run Low On Money 2. Reduce Spending 3. Growth Declines 4. Can't Raise More Money Cause Of Low Growth 5. Repeat #1 Startups are an outlier game. You're dead the moment you start to play it safe.

Camel is the new unicorn..when it comes to startups    20% of new businesses fail within the first two years. 5% of new business startups don't survive the fifth year. 65% of new startups fail during the first ten years.  While there can be many reasons for this, one that I always press point on is – founders usually focus on the number game instead of focusing on the long-term vision. But now is the time to change this and find a balance. Like a camel – which can survive in a desert with little to no water, startups should take a more measured approach to growth. Instead of chasing unrealistic valuations and hyper-growth, companies should prioritize on building sustainable, profitable businesses from the outset.    Being ‘successful’ is a very subjective concept.    - While some may equate success with how much money they made, or how much funds they were able to raise  - others equate it with how long the business is sustained.    According to me the sweet spot lies in balancing both. Defining your long-term vision and executing it through short-term goals is a major key that helps start-ups sustain. In this era where everyone wants to use the buzzword sustainable in their startup, entrepreneurs should focus on making their business sustainable – that is – to sustain in the long run! #startup #vision #growth #sustainable #business

From the heart of innovation in Europe to the dynamic markets of America, understanding the startup landscape can drastically shape your business journey. Here’s my take. I recently had the opportunity to mentor tech startups, offering me a unique lens into both European and American startup landscapes. It's fascinating to see how starkly different their realities are despite having access to smart individuals and considerable venture capital. One fascinating observation was the significantly higher bars for fundraising in Europe compared to America. 📈 Venture Capital may be available broadly, yet its distribution is highly regionalized within these territories. Interestingly, each region has its distinct norms and preferences when it comes to the types of businesses they finance. Likewise, a lot remains unexplored in the contrast of startups' approach in both hemispheres. European startups are notably scrappier - ‘do more with far less capital’ is a mantra that stands true for them. Moreover, the level of local government support for startups in Europe significantly differs from their American counterparts.🌍 If you're gearing up for your startup adventure, aligning with these regional nuances could be your roadmap to success.

It is probably one of the biggest misconceptions in the startup world that all companies at some point need to be able to show a case for how they become unicorns, the fable outliers. The truth is of course that the vast majority of startups will never get close to that point. But the more important truth is that there are plenty of opportunities to create both sizeable and really good businesses with great outcomes for founders and backers, even if you don't get to that 'promised land'. It is time we start to pay more attention to 'the Mighty Middle' and the startups looking to cater more for a niche that they can own rather than disrupting the world. There are tons of really interesting opportunities and startups to consider, when you just put that slightly different perspective on things. #startup #opportunity #success https://lnkd.in/dud2cAPi
