10% of startups become dysfunctional in their first year, and 90% fail in the long run. While the statistics might be scary for emerging tech startups and novice entrepreneurs, the good news is that they have got a lot to learn from.
At Kind Geek, we worked with dozens of startups to develop software that would quickly penetrate the market and be relevant for the final users. During these six years, we have seen both startups that raised billions of dollars of investments and ones that did not work out well.
