This week I’ll cover avenues for financial support for #startups / other industry by the Technology Development Board (TDB) @tdbgoi. Defence *is* one of the areas supported by TDB, but many defence startups are not aware of the scheme.

TDB - setup in Sept 1996 under the Technology Development Board Act (1995) - is a statutory body under the Dept. of Science & Technology @IndiaDST. A 1st of its kind organisation within the govt framework, its sole objective is commercializing fruits of indigenous research. 2/n
TDB has been doing good work across multiple sectors. For example, the new terminal at the Chennai airport uses sky lighting domes for building atriums developed by @skyshade__. Skyshade is a TDB beneficiary…as are many others.3/n

1️⃣ عدم وجود احتياج في السوق للمنتج :
يعد السبب الأساسي لحدوث هذا هو تجاهل عملية بحث السوق، أو خطأ النتائج الواردة بها. تحدث هذه المشكلة أيضًا بسبب عدم الاهتمام بتطوير MVP Minimum Viable Product أي «منتج بالحد الأدنى من الخصائص» لاختبار الفكرة قبل إطلاقها الكامل في السوق.

2️⃣ نفاد السيولة :
لا يمكن الحديث عن أسباب فشل الشركات الناشئة دون التطرق إلى المشاكل المالية تختلف أنواع المشاكل المالية التي تتعرض لها الشركات مثل :
- عدم النجاح في إغلاق جولة استثمارية
- استنزاف الكاش في رفاهيات
- استنزاف موارد الشركة في توظيف فوق الحاجة

وجد في ثلاث شركات تعمل بنفس الفكرة وطبعا نظرا لكبر حجم الشركات الثلاث + عدم وجود كاش كاف لبدء عمليات التسويق والتشغيل
التوصية راح تكون إغلاق النشاط
ولذلك لا تبدأ في أى عمل تجاري دون استشارة خبير
دور المستشار في مشروعك هو حفظ الكاش و الوقت والجهد
