Starting a small business during studies or immediately after graduation is a decision often made by those with good programming knowledge and skills. The costs incurred by setting-up and running such a business can be kept relatively easily at an affordable level if: the business founder relies on his own computer – even if it does not correspond to the current state of the art – the work is done in the parents’ living-room, the internet connection is one designed for residential clients, the programming tools are exclusively open-source and, thus, quite cheap. A good programmer can work by himself; therefore, there are no staff recruiting or running costs.
On both internal and global markets, low cost applications and services are still in demand, so no one can deny that such an approach to starting a business may work. At least for a while. However, in this context, the sustained growth of the company is a matter of chance.
