What is a Zombie Start-up? A zombie startup is a company thatโ€™s technically still alive but not really progressing. It usually has: Enough funding or revenue to keep the lights on. No real growth in users, revenue, or innovation. Founders and team stuck in survival mode instead of scaling. Low chance of attracting new investors because momentum is gone. Basically, itโ€™s not dead, but not really alive either โ€” just โ€œwalking aroundโ€ without purpose.
