Today marks the first day of Global Entrepreneurship Week. No big deal? We beg to differ — here’s why.
1. These people are our customers
We’re building a service to help entrepreneurs turn their local businesses into global businesses.
This service will help small and medium-sized tech companies get to international markets faster, whether they’re staking out new territory or competing against already-established market leaders.
But however successful our service is, no small or medium-sized business is going to get far off the start line with stale ideas. Being as good as the competition just isn’t enough… which brings me to my second point.
2. Entrepreneurs have to be better
Global markets are crowded, competitive places — in technology markets this is especially true. Only the strongest, most clever, most tenacious entrepreneurs survive.
Look to some of our most successful entrepreneurs. Many of them have failed — badly. Fallen flat on their faces. Lost every penny. We know them today because they came back to succeed. And it’s by coming back with new ideas and better executions that entrepreneurs keep markets dynamic.
3. Only the strongest survive
‘Good enough’ stops being good enough when something better is out there — and the entrepreneurial spirit ensures that something better is never far away.
This means consumers get higher-quality goods and services, and in turn, the providers of those goods and services are continually challenged to push the bar higher.
… And this is good for us all.
