"الشركة الناشئة هي شركة مصممة لتنمو بسرعة. تأسيس الشركة حديثًا لا يجعلها بحد ذاته شركة ناشئة. وليس من الضروري أن تعمل الشركة الناشئة في التكنولوجيا أو تلجأ إلى تمويل المخاطرة أو أن يكون لديها نوع من "الخروج"."
— Paul Graham
Simplified Meaning:
A startup is a business that aims to expand very quickly. Simply being a new company isn’t enough to call it a startup. It's not required for it to be involved with tech, get investment money, or have a clear plan to be bought out or go public. Take a small local bakery as an example: if it dreams of becoming a large chain with many branches very fast, it could be seen as a startup. However, just opening up the bakery without plans for quick growth wouldn’t make it a startup. To start and grow a startup, the focus should be on strategies that allow for rapid expansion, such as finding a big market problem to solve or developing a unique product that quickly attracts many customers. This mindset and goal of fast growth are what separate startups from other new small businesses.
