The Ideal Startup

Abstract

It is very difficult to create a model of an ideal startup, but nonetheless we try to give a definition because it summarizes many of the lessons we tried to communicate in this first chapter: The ideal startup is a combination of opportunity, team and timing. The ideal startup addresses a huge market place that is receptive to a change or is just being created due to a paradigm shift, has a team that is sensitive enough to the demands of the market, and hits the market at the right moment, not too early and not too late.
