As technology pervades into our daily lives, entrepreneurs whose efforts led to such advancements are increasingly being viewed as revered figures. Becoming a tech entrepreneur though is far from easy - one must pour time, money, knowledge and effort into one's idea. And even when the creation is finally unveiled, the entrepreneur still has to hope that it will be successful to justify the effort put into it.
