A startup is a young company, typically founded to develop a novel product, service, or business model, characterized by high growth potential, scalability, and significant uncertainty or risk. Startups are commonly funded by founders' savings, angel investors, or venture capital, and are prevalent in technology, biotech, and other innovation-driven sectors. Entrepreneurs and early employees are drawn to them for the chance to build something new, take on broad responsibilities, and share in potential equity upside.
