The modern (startup) business

Like any type of business the tactics for managing and executing a startup are evolving.  Here is a new presentation by Steve Blank from SXSW 2011 on the topic.  Focusing on 3 topics near and dear to me: Customer Development, Business Models, and Lean Startups.  While the primary slant of this presentation is on software (and also a primary focus of the Lean Startup) these concepts can be applied in any startup environment.  Its more about having the right mindset.
