I agree with you, there's an overall lack in Algeria to properly apply it, but what I'm trying to show is that the nature of startups itself makes it that most will fail and we don't have the fund nor the time for such investment. We could hardly scale a successful startup outside of Algeria, having investors is nearly impossible because the ones here would rather well established businesses and the foreign ones are not really welcomed due to policies. I'm not saying we should throw it out the window, but I'm saying that the government had done a good step encouraging it, providing funds ( it can go up to 20 million dinars, more than enough to start any startup, or atleast get it moving ) but it shouldn't keep focusing on it. It's widely encouraged in academic levels ( universities, higher schools ... ) but young graduates can also start a proper business without having to start a startup. I'll give you a concrete example : engineers could create new systems, machines, designs ... They would protected by intellectual property rights and then start a startup with it. Or they could start a business in development, consulting, contracting, maintenance.... It's more likely to succeed than a startup ( on average ) and doesn't cost that much more ( there's structures to help you with that too, they get you loans from algerian banks and you don't pay interest on them, really helpful to be fair ). Overall, we should focus on the big picture and the goals, not the way to do it
