This audiobook was recorded based on 60 interviews with Russian businessmen, who shared their stories about how they started their own business and succeeded in it. The stories were published in the daily newspaper “Business.” The uniqueness of this edition is that its first part offers an open, practical analysis of established patterns of “startups” in post-Soviet countries. This audiobook is like a step-by-step guide to opening your own business, written by those who have already walked this path.
