PHNOM PENH: Recognizing the potential of startups to drive change, the Techo Startup Center (TSC) has released a new book, “Start a Startup: A Guide for Cambodia’s Future Founders.” This resource aims to bridge the knowledge gap surrounding startups and entrepreneurship, particularly relevant in developing economies like Cambodia where the concept is still unfamiliar to many.
The book emphasizes the crucial role startups can play in improving living standards and addressing social and environmental challenges through innovation and digital technology.

“Start a Startup” equips readers with the essential knowledge to navigate the world of entrepreneurship. It delves into critical aspects, including understanding the core concept of startups and the necessary entrepreneurial characteristics and skills, the importance of developing impactful, solution-oriented business ideas with a positive social impact, and utilizing the available resources within the supportive startup ecosystem, such as joining programs offered by the Techo Startup Center.
These programs provide mentorship, access to essential resources, networking opportunities, and potential funding, especially crucial for early-stage ventures. The book highlights the collaborative environment fostered by startup programs, allowing aspiring founders to validate their ideas, build networks, develop their skills, and ultimately create solutions that improve lives through digital innovation.
The authors express their gratitude to the Techo Startup Center and its director, H.E. Dr. Taing Nguonly, for their support and guidance in creating this invaluable resource. They also extend appreciation to the individuals within TSC who contributed their insights and feedback throughout the process.
With the launch of this book, the authors aim to increase awareness and understanding of startups in Cambodia, inspire and empower individuals to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys, and contribute to fostering a vibrant ecosystem of innovation and entrepreneurship in the country.
