초기 스타트업의 부트스트래핑 사례: ㈜블랙루비 스튜디오

초록

The purpose of this study is to explain the bootstrapping method to understand the process of overcoming the difficulties experienced by the limited resources of the initial start-up, through the example of Black Ruby Studio. Most nascent start-ups have constrained resources. This problem is a subject that is constantly being repeated in entrepreneurship research. Despite these problems, there are relatively few studies detailing the process of overcoming the initial difficulties of start-up. Bootstrapping is described as a way to reduce external inflows, reduce risk, and resolve funding issues internally. Many start-ups initially rely on bootstrapping as a way to solving scarce funds and limited resources. Therefore, this study reviewed the prior literatures in bootstrapping, and used 32 detailed item bootstrapping methods suggested in Winborg & Landstrom(2001) on bootstrapping in order to understand bootstrapping concept of start-up. This study gives insightful implication to prospective founders by using the bootstrapping method for survival of start-up and the process of overcoming the difficulties in the start-up.
