So You've Got The Money, Now What? -- Epilogue: Companies That Make It -- IndexBuilding successful start-ups was never quite as easy as it seemed, and the changing economic climate has raised the stakes, reduced the margin of error. New entrepreneurs can't stumble into wealth on the power of half-formed ideas, or turn dreams into reality without doing a lot of homework. It's time to get smart. This book teaches would-be entrepreneurs the skills they need to get through the venture capital process with companies that will survive to grow and succeed.Rob Ryan, a pioneer in the high-tech industry, founded Ascend Communications in 1989, and throughout the nineties provided firms with the infrastructure they needed to keep up with the rapid growth of the Internet. At the beginning of 1999, Ascend was sold to Lucent for 5 billion. Since retiring from Ascend and starting Entrepreneur America, Ryan has helped launch a string of successful companies, including Virtmed, RightNow, and Virtual Ink. All provide electronic solutions to real-world problems, meet existing-rather than manufactured-needs, and save their customers time and money.In Smartups, Ryan focuses on methods he's developed over the years for building a sustainable business that makes money. He emphasizes the importance of testing ideas on customers and making sure that a product offers something new and important. Recognizing a team's key competencies is crucial, Ryan says. He also finds it necessary to take certain steps at the correct stages of a company's inception. Smartups will show you how to turn your idea into a real product, take it to investors, and get your start-up started right.High technology industriesUnited StatesManagementNew business enterprisesUnited StatesManagementEntrepreneurshipUnited StatesHigh technology industriesManagement.New business enterprisesManagement.Entrepreneurship620/.0068Ryan Rob1948-1518041Ryan Rob1948-1518041MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779020203321Smartups3755387UNINA06693nam 22009015 450 991030015280332120251202141002.03-319-03512-610.1007/978-3-319-03512-3(CKB)3710000000085771(SSID)ssj0001178821(PQKBManifestationID)11701667(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001178821(PQKBWorkID)11169173(PQKB)10294149(MiAaPQ)EBC1698506(DE-He213)978-3-319-03512-3(PPN)176108033(EXLCZ)99371000000008577120140130d2014 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtccrModern Stochastics and Applications /edited by Volodymyr Korolyuk, Nikolaos Limnios, Yuliya Mishura, Lyudmyla Sakhno, Georgiy Shevchenko1st ed. 2014.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2014.1 online resource (352 pages)Springer Optimization and Its Applications,1931-6836 ;90"Contains contributed papers of selected speakers of the International Conference "Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications III.", held on September 10-14, 2012, at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Ukraine"--Preface.3-319-03511-8 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.Part I: Probability Distributions in Applications.-Comparing Brownian stochastic integrals for the convex order (Yor, Hirsch) -- Application of φ-sub-Gaussian random processes in queueing theory (Kozachenko, Yamnenko) -- A review on time-changed pseudo processes and the related distributions (Orsingher) -- Reciprocal processes: a stochastic analysis approach (Roelly).
