About Pre-Mortem Insights
Research, review, and practical startup support.
Pre-Mortem Insights brings together ongoing doctoral research, startup strategy, operations, client experience, and quality review.
Born from doctoral research and built for practical use.
The model grew from research examining how startup failure narratives align with measurable financial and operating signals. It is informed by a research corpus covering startup histories.
