  • Startups rarely die from competition but from internal issues ('suicide').
  • Common internal issues include founder burnout, team disagreements, and loss of focus.
  • Running out of money is often a symptom of deeper problems like lack of product-market fit.
  • Co-founder conflict is a major cause of startup failure, cited in 65% of cases.
  • Loss of focus and founder burnout can lead to startups losing momentum and failing.
  • Key survival strategies include choosing co-founders wisely, achieving product-market fit, and managing finances carefully.
  • Maintaining a healthy team culture and staying committed are crucial for startup success.
