Description
Research study on what we can learn from their investigation of a small sample of four entrepreneurial founders of successful start-up organizations.
What are some of the critical learnings and key takeaways you can find from your brief investigation into their backgrounds and strategies for overcoming obstacles and creating successful organizational start-ups and eventual market successes. Consider where the ideas came from; how did they come up with them and what were the sources of the inspirations for the venture ideas – – the problems, frustrations, changes in the overall situation, or unexpected events that eventually focused their entrepreneurial efforts and undertakings. What marketing initiatives, alternative choices, or market segments did they undertake to get their ideas commercialized? Were there any obstacles or surprises that they had to face or overcome? How did they get started and how did their strategies change as they struggled to get more successful in the marketplace? What were the important changes or events or supporting factors that eventually enabled and led to their success, growth, and other market segments? How did they handle competitive organizations from a market and an intellectual property point of view? In general, try to identify the critical factors to which you attribute their success and see if there any commonalities that you can learn from? These are just some of the things you can think about as you uncover their innovative start-up case histories and stories.
