employees and the very fast growth of the business. In Paul Graham’s opinion, a start-up is developed only for a rapid growth and all the actions that are related are scrolled in order to reach this goal of rapid development. Because we live in a high technology society, most of the start-ups are focused on using computer techniques and recent innovations. A start-up can be described also as a temporary business that is trying to implement a business model for a product or service that the entrepreneurs belive to bring profit for the business.

As you can see, there are many regions around the globe that are prone for start-ups developments.
The place of start-ups in the business environment nowadays
Usually a start-up means an innovative idea for the business environment that will bring profit and a rapid growth. In the history, we may say that most of the inventions were at their time a start-up. But, if we consider that most of the definitions regarding the term “start-up” are focused on new technologies, then we may say that start-ups are quite a modern trend. Nowadays start-ups represent an important part of the business 
environment. There are plenty of start-ups all over the world that are trying to find a place in the market and grow fast. The importance of start-ups includes both financial profit and benefits in human life. Because start-ups bring innovations and release new ideas in our daily life, we may say that start-ups are very important in creating a higher comfort for humans. Many start-ups are considered very valuable by large companies and due to this those start-ups are bought by these important companies. Start-ups bring in the business environment new ideas, new small companies and new opportunities for clients to benefit from technology in their lifes.
Because we are living in a society with many continental companies, small businesses such as start-ups are welcomed. Having start-ups in the business environment, all of us are able to have their own business and make money implementing that idea.
