Startups are not told by Number of employees or time

Thanks for the article. I am a young finance professional myself who recently launched a fund in Utah and I love to read about others who did the same and made it to the top. Hope to be there someday. Thanks and Regards/- Jason Webb

I think that a company is still considered a startup as long as it has significant growth. Once a company levels off, it is no longer a startup. The company I’m working for has been around for 5 years and has 60 employees. I will continue to market and grow the company so I still consider it a startup.

When I think of a startup, I think of the guy in his garage making widgets. I think valuation is part of it. But define valuation with vc money. Perhaps an established product identity or image would be a cut off point?

I loved the post, especially because it made think about my business and my ideas. The question that you left is critical for business, especially for web companies.
Thanks for the post.

I agreed with philip. Once u devel0ped ur product or shaped ur idea and started generating revenue then its no more “startup”.

Is a startup only an online tech company? I mean I’ve had a successful “brick and mortar” business for 8 years with 50 employees. I don’t consider it a “startup”, but what do you think?
