We’ve all, of course, read about the spectacular success of startups.
It’s impossible to escape the amazing tales of people starting with an idea in a garage (think Apple) and growing it into a billion-dollar global business.
But a startup isn’t as easy as those well-known stories might have you think. There’s a little bit of luck to ensure startup success and a whole lot of other influences at play.

If the market isn’t ready, then the best ideas in the world won’t have any effect.

What else does it involve? This infographic on startup success principles offers some insights.
