failed startups


At the request of viewers, I am writing about one of the biggest failures that occurred before the eyes of Ukrainian high-tech community. Moreover, many employees of this company reads this blog and can otkommentiruyut.



We are talking about staratape. Sonopia. Sonopiya was established in Kiev, known Silicon Valley entrepreneur Juha Kristenstenom (he is a former CEO of Symbian and former vice president of Microsoft's mobile technology ). Start-up promised to be virualnymi mobile operator. Development Center, and real estate development business was in Kiev and across the company took a lot of talented and ambitious programmers. If I am not mistaken, the total investment amounted to Sonopiyu 15 to $ 20 million.



More information can be read at. Tekranche. - There are links to different materials, it is very interesting reading.



For readers, I will turn attention to the fact that the silicone valley bankruptcy - it's not a tragedy ( well, except for personal experiences Founder access ), is more important to analyze why the startup fell and AS. If the CEO of a company bankrupted nice and honest, he has a great chance to raise the following the next startup, put together a team and get funding.



Who is to say - Wellcome to the comments.
