Ask HN: What is the startup life cycle?
1 point by jarrettcoggin on July 18, 2011 | hide | past | favorite
I'm curious as to what the life cycle is for a startup to go through. I understand there is the initial idea, an incubation period where the idea is hashed out, rounds of funding, etc. I guess my main question is:

What does the "standard" process look like for a startup that succeeds?

I understand that bootstrapped startups don't go through the same process as a VC-funded startup does, but it wouldn't hurt to include that information as well.
