A start-up is a painting that the artist "founder" tries to express to his audience. At times he's misunderstood, but there are times when the whole world appreciates and respects the artist's masterpiece....

Very interesting and informative. I'm not even entrepreneurially minded.

Thank you! I am happy to hear that. We're hoping these stories can be interesting and informative not only to founders, but for a general audience. And who knows, maybe you will be a founder someday?
