Google, Facebook, Instagram, Groupon, LinkedIn - the financial successes of most of these companies gets us all inspired to go and start our own company. So what does it really take to take an idea to a profitable business? Let's talk about the process and the not so sexy grunt work that will lie ahead.

We will examine the role of the team and the often lonely path most entrepreneurs will take in their quest for success.
