As defined by Wikipedia,
A
startup company (
startup or
start-up) is an entrepreneurial venture which is typically a newly emerged, fast-growing
business
that aims to meet a marketplace need by developing or offering an
innovative product, process or service. A startup is usually a
company such as a
small business, a
partnership or an organization designed to rapidly develop
scalable business model.Often, startup companies deploy technologies, such as
Internet,
e-commerce, computers, telecommunications, or
robotics. These companies are generally involved in the design and implementation of the
innovative processes of the
development, validation and research for target
markets.While start-ups do not all operate in technology realms, the term became internationally widespread during the
dot-com bubble in the late 1990s, when a great number of
Internet-based companies were founded.
