1.) While reading this weeks chapter I found the reported new venture starts up to be higher than I expected. With more than 600,000 firms emerging I found it astonishing that the number is rapidly increasing with over 500,000 applications each year.
2.) I found lifestyle ventures to be a little confusing just based on the fact that it seems this type of route is something the entrepreneur would try to partially avoid. Yes believing in a product is important, but revenue is usually a large reason behind the idea.
3.)If I could talk to the author and ask a couple question I would then ask is How did you get the access to the high tech firms in order to gain your information regarding why new ventures fail. My Second question would be what do you recommend for first time entrepreneurs and when they should take the " leap of faith" into the venture world?
4.) I honestly found nothing I could disagree with. The information provided in this chapter was pretty spot on on what I thought numbers would be for failure and success rates.
