Why most start-up businesses fail: Sriram Bharatam at TEDxKaren


Sriram Bharatam is the Founder and Chief Mentor at Kuza Biashara Ltd, an organization which nurtures the capacity of small businesses using innovative digital and mobile solutions. His presentation at TEDxKaren was geared towards exploring why most start-ups in the corporate world fail at an infancy stage.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.*
