Publisher's Summary

This year, more than five million entrepreneurs will launch new ventures. Many of them believe they have the Next Big Thing. But very few startups live to see five years, and even fewer make it to 10. Even fewer still go on to become global success stories.

This audiobook is a practical guide to evaluating your business idea and a must-listen for all aspiring entrepreneurs.

You'll learn:

  • That if your new venture doesn't follow the 10x Rule, you should not quit your day job and why
  • How early customer development can transform a good idea into a great opportunity
  • Which opportunities are worth selling everything for

Brad Feld and Dr. Sean Wise have been assessing startup opportunities for more than two decades. They have witnessed more than 30,000 pitches and participated in more than 500 startup launches. Now two of North America's leading minds in venture capital share how they determine which startups will succeed and which will fail.

This audiobook is indispensable for anybody who has ever thought about starting a business or fumbled their way through giving advice about starting a business.

Great place for a starting point.

Having just started to delve into the world of startups - I found this amazing. a lot I found fascinating and new as a 21 year old in uni and working in tech startups. Definitely fast tracked my learning and understanding - solidifying my hunger but also preparing me... I need to listen to this again and maybe buy the book. Great work.
