                  Frontstep Russia (A): High-Tech Start-up and Survival in a New “Time of Troubles”

                  It was long believed that entrepreneurship in Russia is close to impossible without government or mafia connections. This case study argues that, on the contrary, "garage-type" entrepreneurship is possible in Russia. For the Russians at Frontstep, the company in this case study, however, there were no how-to manuals to turn to.
