Predators versus prey in the startup ecosystem

Ecosystem

The “Startup Sea” is broad and loaded with life. There are those who are considered predators, which means someone has to be the prey. It’s a self-sustaining culture as long as there’s enough people (and dollars) looking for “the next big thing” coming into our lives. That part, at least, seems to be consistent.

Everyone from angel investors to tech bloggers play a role. It can be an ugly process to create something wonderful.

This graphic by our friends at Udemy examines this ecosystem and makes the distinct roles come to life. Click to enlarge.
