Ask HN: How do you start a data vendor/broker business?
I have a few niche markets where I think there is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to create Bloombergs, Capital IQs, FactSets or even CrunchBase or CB Insights like offerings.
I just have no idea what is involved in such a business. How do you approach data sources? What is your value prep to them? How do you price these things? Amongst many many other questions
