This is a rather narrow view and is not necessarily true. Plenty of people start companies to solve (or even explore) problems. Liquidity events (M&A, IPO, etc) are not always the end-game.
- mod 11y agoI think it's just missing a word--I didn't read it the way you did. entrepreneurs often start businesses with the express purpose to be sold to a large company
- amirmc 11y agoI'd still take issue with that but at this point we'd end up discussing the semantics of 'entrepreneur', 'startup' and 'business'.
