Should I include failed startup in resume and how

Hi grapeviners,

I had around 3 YOE pre MBA and during MBA I tried building a robotics startup which sort of failed because of multiple issues like funding and market response hence by end of MBA had to wind it up with few prototypes.

Is it good idea to mention this in resume and if so there's no way I can prove this as experience now since I had not yet registered company as such.... So will it be a problem during BGV ??

Would be grateful for your inputs

Please don’t do an MBA for the sake of doing one

Lots of M7 MBA folks I know of are having ‘Stealth’ on their LinkedIn since they haven’t found a role yet and don’t want to show a gap - it’s brutal out there
