The innovativeness of the paper relies on the unconventional connection between the literature on project management, and studies of entrepreneurship. The discussion provides contribution to the field of project management, in the attempt to provide a customization of the PM standard for a particular typology of project: business start-up. Implications for practices regard the utilization of the framework by the nascent entrepreneur, by the start-upper, or by the researcher of University students for the launching of a spin off.
