商品描述

This book explores startups that have thrived against the odds in places where startup success was deemed to be unlikely. Discussing a number of technology startups from around the world that have succeeded without state backing nor local venture and seed capital, Black Swan Start Ups provides unique insights into unsung models of success beyond the two dominant narratives of Asia's 'Tiger Economies' and America's Silicon Valley miracle. The author describes these stories of success as 'black swan events' and ascribes their achievements to the ability of entrepreneurs to leverage the 'place surplus' of their locations, while building connections to support networks outside their immediate geographies. Including case studies such as Skype in Estonia, SoundCloud in Germany and Bayt.Com in Dubai, this insightful book gives a holistic and wide-ranging view of how technology startups have, and can, succeed in less likely places.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書探討了在創業成功被認為不太可能的地方,仍然蓬勃發展的初創企業。書中討論了來自世界各地的多個科技初創企業,它們在沒有國家支持或當地風險投資和種子資本的情況下取得了成功。《黑天鵝初創企業》提供了獨特的見解,揭示了超越亞洲「虎經濟」和美國矽谷奇蹟這兩個主流敘事的無名成功模式。作者將這些成功故事描述為「黑天鵝事件」,並將其成就歸因於企業家利用其所在地的「地點盈餘」的能力,同時建立與其直接地理範圍之外的支持網絡的聯繫。書中包括了如愛沙尼亞的Skype、德國的SoundCloud和迪拜的Bayt.Com等案例研究,這本富有洞察力的書籍提供了一個全面且廣泛的視角,展示了科技初創企業如何在不太可能的地方取得成功,並且未來仍然可以成功。
