Bill Gross is t
he founder of Idealab, an incubator of new inventions, ideas and businesses. In his TED Talk entitled, The Single Biggest Reason Startups Succeed, Mr. Gross asks which factors matter the most for a company to succeed.
Bill Gross has extensive experience with startups and incubators; many successes and many big failures, from which he has learned a lot. He became curious as to why some succeeded and others failed, so he conducted scientific research by gathering data from hundreds of companies, and ranked each company on five key factors:
1. Ideas
2. Team
3. Business Model
4. Funding
5. Timing
