What is a Startup?
Some Definitions
„A human institution designed to create a new product
or service under conditions of extreme uncertainty.”
- Eric Ries

„A startup is a temporary organization in search for a
scalable, repeatable, profitable business model.“
-

Startups = Experiments
Problem (Market) = unknown
Solution (Product) = unknown

One method to rule them all?
No! Startups need their own management tools

MBA = ADMINISTRATION
(perfect for running a company, but not for “designing”)

Are you advancing a plan or are you making progress?

Why startups fail

“ Startups don’t fail because
they lack a product; they fail
because they lack customers
and a profitable business
model ”
