Traditional business companies and startups are decidedly different organizations. Each has what the other lacks. Traditional business company has the resources, scale, power and routines needed to execute a proven business model efficiently. Startup has none of that, but usually has promising ideas, organizational agility, willingness to take risks, and fast-growing aspirations. Considering the above introduced considerations, the aim and contribution of this paper is to make a comparative analysis between traditional business companies and startups.
