Because small business start-ups create the most new
jobs.
Because start-ups are innovation driven businesses; they are the ones
that bring fresh ideas and products.
Because start-ups are a goldmine for investors as ROI can be
astonishing (Twitter anyone?).
Because start-up survival statistics are downright frightening - hardly
50% survive to their fifth year.
Because not everyone is a Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, whose natural
talents, charm and drive compensated for the lack of business experience and
time proven skills.

With YOUR help and contribution, we can build virtual
training grounds for the development of skills necessary for start-uppers.
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today.
Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime”. To provide
start-uppers with facilities to learn how to “fish”- this is our goal.

If we summarize the reasons why start-ups fail, we'll end up with these two
reasons: the lack of specific business oriented knowledge and skills.
Skills and knowledge can be attained by using business simulations.
Therefore, we want to create and develop a special company within Virtonomics,
that will be:
- A simulation of a start-up.
- High tech orientated, players will be developing
both new hardware and software.
- The core and challenges of the game will be
based on main reasons why start-ups fail.
- Integrated into our global virtual economy to
supplement it and gain natural feedback.
A start-up company in Virtonomics
will allow start-uppers to explore business environment and processes,
experiment and learn, by developing their business skills and gaining
experience.
After completing the game, there would be less risk in
starting and running your real business. And less risk means more chances to
fulfill your ideas and dreams.
