New software startups are born everyday around the world.
Nonetheless, failure is the fate of most of them. The community already
knows that several facts, such as market competition or lack of resources,
can impact the destiny of a startup. However, little has been explored in
term of the impact of software startup education on the success of failure
of startups. In this sense, this study presents the initial steps that we
are taking to understand how software startups are taught around the
world. To do so, we design a qualitative survey aimed at software startup
educators at Universities. Our goal is to gather enough information so
we can help the academic community in improving their own courses. So
far, we have gathered 10 responses from lecturers across the globe. This
paper describes these findings.
