The need for a Startup School is so that a startup doesn’t fail. 90 percent of the startups fail because they lack strategy, vision and innovation, financial restraint, lack of awareness. The Startup School will aim in solving the issues of growing startups, offering them solutions. By giving the founders proper access to knowledge and resources, they will know which direction to go to and how to grow a business. Entrepreneurs will have a chance to interact with other people, opportunities to gain insight and how to grow as a founder of a startup.
