Lean Startup is the scientific method applied to entrepreneurship. It is a methodology for developing businesses and products, which aims to shorten product development cycles and rapidly discover if a proposed business model is viable. This is achieved by adopting a combination of business-hypothesis-driven experimentation, iterative product releases, and validated learning. 'Lean Startup' as it is known today is largely due to the success of Eric Ries' book, 'The Lean Startup' – which was heavily influenced by the work of Steve Blank, who pioneered the Lean Startup movement with his Customer Development concept, and his books, 'The Startup Manual, and '4 Steps to Epiphany', as well as the Lean Production System from Toyota. Central to the lean startup methodology is the assumption that when startup companies invest their time into iteratively building products or services to meet the specific needs of early customers – and using the least amount of resources possible – the company can reduce market risks and sidestep the need for large amounts of initial project funding and expensive product launches and failures. Customer feedback during the development of products or services is integral to the lean startup process, and ensures that the company does not invest time designing features or services that consumers do not want. Similar to the precepts of Lean Manufacturing and lean software development, the Lean Startup methodology seeks to eliminate wasteful practices and increase value-producing practices during the earliest phases of a company so that the company can have a better chance of success without requiring large amounts of outside funding, elaborate business plans, or a perfect product.
