By Esther Gons • Issue #38 • View online

Dear innovators,

Many people think that startups are either an overnight success or fail fast. We know that it takes a lot of hard work, tears, and effort to get a startup off the ground. We want to prove this by putting the numbers together. Therefore, we started a research. If you have or had a startup, or you know someone that does. Then please, participate in this research by filling in the survey ( it takes 1 min) or share it with someone. Let’s find those numbers together. A lot of thanks in advance!

Enjoy this weeks content,
