Key Risks in a Startup

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.

Investors reviewing a startup for a potential investment know there are many risks to consider.

Here's a list of key risks to look for in a startup:

Team risk.

Does the startup have the right team with the right skills, and can they work together?

Market risk.

Will the market provide enough opportunities for the startup to succeed?

Competition risk.

Will the competition outrun the startup?

Timing risk.

Is now the right time to launch this startup?

Funding risk.

Will the startup be able to raise enough funding to accomplish the milestones?

Marketing risk.

Will the startup be able to get its message across?

Sales risk.

Will the startup choose the appropriate sales channels and hit the forecast?

Technology risk.

Will the technology landscape move against the startup and obsolete their technology?

Product risk.

Can the team build the proposed product?

Hiring risk.

Can the team hire the right people based on their location and position in the market?

Consider these risks in making a startup investment decision.
