Today on StartupSmart, we look at how shifting start-up trends have slashed the time it takes to get a business off the ground.

Whether it is the flexibility offered by technology or the ability to reach a potentially huge customer base via the internet, the start-up process is becoming increasingly swift for entrepreneurs.

To illustrate this, we’ve listed 10 start-ups that have managed to get up and running in next to no time at all. Could your business be as nimble as this group?

Elsewhere, mentor Amanda Gome talks a reader through some cashflow problems and we bring news of potential changes to Australia’s patent system.
