StartUp Projects: The Age of Original Ideas
The rapid and flying pace of the technology world clearly shows the goal of going beyond meeting the needs of our age. The success and failure of every kind of initiative made today is very much related to the correct reading of statistical data. Today, we are evolving towards a phase that has been stripped of the old entrepreneurial methods. Almost all new initiatives emerge in digital media. It would not be wrong to say that startup projects emerged from the world of web software and web design. The initiatives of the time we live in are now made up of the startup projects of the web world. So, what is this Startup?
What is a Startup Project?
Let's explain a Startup Project in very simple terms. For example; you have a certain amount of capital and you want to open a cafe. If the cafe you open is built on a place where everyone sells products they know, the service provided consists of food and beverages, has a menu and people sit at tables to eat and drink, this is a normal initiative. Because there are millions of cafes operating in this way in the world. But if you open a cafe inside a zeppelin suspended at a certain height, transfer people there by helicopter, and give parachutes to those who want to go down, this will not be a classic cafe. This is now a completely original idea, a startup project. In short, if you have a new idea or a project idea that has never been done before, you can call it a startup project.
Web Software and Startup
The software sector is at the forefront of the fields that change and shape the world we live in very quickly. With the changes and revolutions in the mobile field, the software sector has an undeniable effect. The great innovations brought by the software sector continue their journey by transforming, changing and developing many areas such as the state, the industry sector, education, health, finance sector, etc. The web software sector is currently indispensable for startup projects. Because behind every new idea lies the fact that the internet or the web world, or the mobile world, cannot be. Today, with every new idea you produce, you will enter people's pockets and homes.
Startup, creation process and success
Today, many startups in the world have shown successful growth and development and have become one of the world's leading companies. If we look at the sectors in which the most profitable companies in the world are (Apple, Microsoft, Google), we can see where the software sector is for humanity.
Ventures such as Airbnb, Dropbox, Uber, Whatsapp started as startups and have turned into large companies worth billions of dollars today. Let's end the article with an interview with Jan Koum, one of the founders who sold Whatsapp to Facebook for 19 Billion Dollars, on the 5th anniversary of the company.
"I think startups are not about time. They say that age is not a number but about how you feel. For example, I don't feel like I'm 38 years old. Our company is 5 years old, but we move very fast, make decisions quickly, and continue to produce; then we are still a startup"
