No Single “I” in “Successful Entrepreneur”
18th February 2012 · 0 Comments
We are excited about the response from all of you technology entrepreneurs interested in our next class. At Tech Wildcatters, a requirement for admittance is that there needs to be two members on a team. We often get asked if we will wave that requirement, and allow a solo entrepreneur, and the answer is always “No”.
Why? Well, most great startup success stories have two or more entrepreneurs involved. Cuban and Wagner, Brin and Page, Orville and Wilbur, etc. And making a startup successful is also about finding great people and growing the team.
Do you as an entrepreneur have to personally be committed? Yes, absolutely! Can a team also have problems? Sure, we’ve seen them here at TW. Can you succeed by your lonesome self? Sure, it happens all the time.
But one of the things we do is help people team up. Because being that one “I”, a solo entrepreneur, is tough; it is especially tough in technology, and raises the risk substantially. Hence the title of the post.
