Startup

This blog is an attempt to identify, track and observe startups in India and elsewhere. There are so many startups around and many are doing quiet well.
So what is a startup?
Wikipedia says
A startup company or start-up is a company with a limited operating history. These companies, generally newly created, are in a phase of development and research for markets. They have an uncertain future, and may result in a spectacular success, or failure. The term became popular internationally during the dot-com bubble when a great number of dot-com companies were founded. A high tech startup company is a startup company specialized in the high tech industry.

Good enough! From now on I will stick to this definition while deciding whether a company can be deemed a startup or not.
