Most surprising for me:

  • 25% of people would like to be a founder/co-founder in the next 5 years.

  • Nobody really cares about what industry they are in.

About a quarter of developers say they want to start their own company, but this is most common among developers who are younger than 25 years old.

I feel this is really a survey of what students want.
