Early-stage software startup patterns strategies to building high-tech software companies from scratch

This pattern language describes different strategies to build an innovative software startup. We propose patterns to address multiple problems that an early-stage startup has to face. While some patterns are more related to technical issues, other focus on human and management aspects of new, creative software companies. The pattern language can be used as a set of tools for high-tech entrepreneurs.
