The Steve Blank definition of a start-up is "a startup is a temporary organization used to search for a repeatable and scalable business model."
It's possible to form other successful businesses of course. But I like the way this definition calls out the scalability as an important factor. It doesn't make you point about betting against it working any less valid though.
