12. Challenges faced by Startups :
 A recent study, “Entrepreneurial India” by the IBM Institute found that 90% of Indian startups fail within the first
five years. And the most common reason for failure is lack of innovation — 77% of venture capitalists surveyed
believe that Indian startups lack new technologies or unique business models
 Planning : As the saying goes, “if you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.” So don’t leave the details to later.
 Execution :
 Lack of Innovation
 Funding :
 lack of mentorship : You may have a great product or idea, but lack the necessary guidance, market experience, or
knowledge to take it to the next level. That’s where a mentor comes in, with the wisdom and confidence to help you
clear those roadblocks that are holding your startup back. According to Rhett Morris of Endeavor Insight 33% of tech
firm founders who are mentored by successful entrepreneurs went on to become top performers.
 Human Resources & Poor business ethics :
“Since 2015, as many as 1,503 startups have closed down in India. And the major reason is due to the replication of
Western business models, and not lack of subsequent funding from the investors . The highest number of failures were in
logistics, e-commerce and food technology.
