Tech entrepreneurs, make your startup dreams come true by utilizing this invaluable, founder-to-founder guide to successfully navigating all phases of the tech startup journey.

With the advent of the internet, mobile computing, and now AI/Machine learning and cloud computing, the number of new startups has accelerated over the last decade across tech centers in Silicon Valley, Israel, India, and China.

From Startup to Exit shares the knowledge that pioneering, serial entrepreneur Shirish Nadkarni has gained from over two decades of success, detailing the practical aspects of startup formation from founding, funding, management, and finding an exit.

With successful tech entrepreneurs interviewed and featured throughout, From Startup to Exit will help you:

• Understand exactly what tech startups must do to succeed in all phases, from idea stage to IPO. • Gain invaluable insights from the journeys of other successful tech founders that can be applied to your own situation. • Learn how to raise millions of dollars of funding from angels and VCs to give your company the fuel it needs to take off and succeed.

Accompanying figures, glossary, and appendix are available in the audiobook companion PDF.
