> Almost every startup I know of that failed, failed because of business reasons, not tech. My experience is that business promised novel products to investors and customers, but engineers could not deliver any miracles with the time and resources available. Is that a failure of business or tech? Well, I have seen others were there was just no market for the product. Like some paid service on the web when users expect it to be free of charge. I guess this qualifies as business failure.
