Abstract

The article discusses the concept of the "mighty middle" in entrepreneurship, which refers to startups that have the potential to scale meaningfully and rapidly, but not necessarily to extreme valuations. These midsize startups offer opportunities for entrepreneurs and their employees and can be successful by employing different strategies for funding, hiring, and competing. The article highlights the advantages and challenges of the mighty middle for entrepreneurs, investors, and corporations, and suggests that more attention should be given to this segment of the entrepreneurial spectrum.
