Running a start-up has to be like running a business! You have to love it!

Why this blog

Welcome! Let’s talk about histories of startups not successfully

1

Dear All,

I am an Italian entrepreneur which started up a blog in Italy discussing about histories of startups which weren’t able to succeed in the market.

This Italian blog is having an unbeliveble (for me) success and lots of people were suggesting to write also an English version, so here I am.

My goal is just discussing about histories of startups which weren’t able to succeed in the market. I believe, as an entrepreneur, that these stories could be of a great interest for those wishing to start up a business or for those who are already entrepreneurs.

That’s why I will  try to share these interests with you, I hope you will enjoy!

Of course I will welcome all contributions and suggestions.

Thanks, ciao

Andrea
