Pero las startups tienen la ventaja de ser oscuras, tener un número de clientes patéticamente pequeño y no ser demasiado conocidas. Más que lamentars… - Eric Ries

Internal or external, in my experience startup teams require three structural attributes: scarce but secure resources, independent authority to develop their business, and a personal stake in the outcome.

The Lean Startup asks people to start measuring their productivity differently. Because startups often accidentally build something nobody wants, it doesn’t matter much if they do it on time and on budget. The goal of a startup is to figure out the right thing to build — the thing customers want and will pay for — as quickly as possible. In other words, the Lean Startup is a new way of looking at the development of innovative new products that emphasizes fast iteration and customer insight, a huge vision, and great ambition, all at the same time.

Startups exist not just to make stuff, make money, or even serve customers. They exist to learn how to build a sustainable business.
