Even the word “startup” has become pretty meaningless these days, when you see 10 year old businesses calling themselves “startups.”

- neltnerb 7y agoYeah... once you are no longer a small business interest as defined by the government, you are at least at the tail end of the period you should be able to call yourself a startup. It's just a buzzword if the company is more mature than that. Maybe it helps them get job applicants or something to market that way. Or get a bigger multiplier on their valuation relative to actual profits.
- iam-TJ 7y ago"start-up" as a euphemism for "still loss-making" maybe?
