[Jensen Huang: Now Is the Best Time in History to Start a Business, Don’t Overthink 'How Hard Can It Be'] BlockBeats News, August 1 — According to a report by *Fortune*, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated at the Y Combinator Startup School 2026 that now is the best time in history to start a company. He advised young entrepreneurs not to overthink due to rapid technological changes or fear of failure. He suggested asking oneself when facing challenges: 'How hard can it be?' Huang emphasized that entrepreneurs don’t need to have all the answers from day one; the key is to face reality and keep learning. He shared that in NVIDIA’s early days, the company bet on the wrong graphics technology. When they didn’t know how to solve the problem, he bought three technical textbooks and handed them to the engineers. He noted that as long as one maintains the ability to learn, the specific technology itself is not the most critical factor. However, Huang does not believe success comes easily. He revealed that he still works seven days a week and has long worried about the possibility of the company going under. This sense of vulnerability, uncertainty, and insecurity has never disappeared. His advice is not to preemptively imagine all the difficulties, as anxiety could prevent action. Instead, let challenges come gradually and address them one by one. Data shows that in the first half of 2026, the number of business applications in the United States reached a record 3.23 million, a year-on-year increase of 12.1%. However, the risks of entrepreneurship remain high. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly half of businesses cease operations within five years of being established. [Original Link]
