Almost every day there is a new product launched, but starting a business is not simply about having a great idea or a product.
The mere uncertainty of startups is both frightening and stimulating.
If all you have is a good product, starting your business can be a daunting journey.

Luckily, many collaboration business tools are built having in mind startup ecosystem, but what tools a...

It sounds simply enough, however, creating an atmosphere in which your team feels empowered and engaged takes time and energy.
Motivation is a topic that leaves many businesses cold, those businesses that follow the lead of hard-pressed managers who believe they already know the proven ways to motivate a group of people to work better and harder.

That’s precisely why business meetings are goal-reaching opportunities.
A well-run meeting empowers people to solve problems, share information and be more productive....

We live in a world that is driven by software. It has become one of the world’s most successful and fastest growing economies. Companies like Facebook and Google have become one of the worlds largest earning companies. Almost whole of humanity is relying on some type of software to an extent.
Why is this?
Because of the demand! In the past decade the tech industry grew a lot slower. Of course, it is still developing and growing, but compared to the 80’s and 90’s, progress has slowed down.

All companies start as a small business. Tweet
Which businesses are defined as "small" in terms of government support and tax policy varies depending on the country and industry. Small businesses can range from 15 employees under the Australian Fair Work Act 2009, 50 employees according to the definition used by the European Union, and fewer than 500 employees to qualify for many U.S. Small Business Administration programs.
