About the Book

Written based on experiences from founding a successful startup accelerator in an emerging tech hub, from talking to lots of other entrepreneurs and community leaders arond the world and from teaching entrepreneurship as an adjunct professor.

Startups and community organizers outside of the mainstream are being misled. Startup Sacrilege includes lessons learned and solutions, especially for startups and community organizers outside of established tech hubs. It's an alternative view that challenges startup world assumptions and makes suggestions for what to do instead. 

Read Paul's other writing on startups and on second-order thinking.
