Start-ups can have an unfair advantage over their competitors when it comes to securing resources, such as funding and talent. They often have access to networks of investors, venture capitalists, and angel investors who are willing to take a risk on a young company or product. They may also have access to resources such as mentors, technology, and an array of advisors who can provide invaluable advice to help the business get off the ground. Additionally, start-ups often benefit from government grants and subsidies, which can give them an edge over established companies. While it is important for any business to make the most of these resources, it is important to remember that having an unfair advantage can create an unbalanced playing field and make it difficult for other businesses to compete. >What's your unfair advantage? >~ [[Tren Griffin]] ## [[Zero Sum Game]]s >In any economic system, scarce resources have to be allocated among competing uses. >~ [[Gregory Mankiw - Principles of Macroeconomics]]
