Startup CTOs: the job is not to build
chrismdp.com" Why startups exist
Startups exists to find a solution to a problem someone has, and then to build a product around it. Ideally that problem is not being addressed well for a certain group of people, and there is a chance to improve the lives of those people in a way that makes money.
Essentially, there need to be:
enough customers out there, that
you are able to reach with a
big enough problem that is
worth them paying you to solve it that
you are capable of solving.
