What is a tech startup?A startup is an early stage (we define early stage as less than $200k revenue or investment) business that is creating a product/platform to reach a significant market. Remember your startup doesn’t necessarily need to be in the tech sector to be a tech startup, it just needs to be leveraging technology. Some examples of tech startups are uber, ebay and airbnb. Although these businesses are in the transport, retail and accommodation industries they are leveraging technology to reach more customers.
