Definition of startups according to staruppers in France

Startups are above all companies with high growth potential, according to 81 percent of the startuppers interviewed in France in 2018. Startups are not there to copy an existing model but rather to create a radical novelty. For 56 percent of the startuppers surveyed, startups are "scalable" companies, that is to say that their agility makes it possible to quickly manage a change of scale in business volume while maintaining high profitability.
