t means to begin at the bottom and work up. . In the construction trade they used to say for example ," I am going to build this house from the ground up, ." Meaning from the foundation , the floors, the walls and finally the roof.. The term can be used to reflect the start up of any project, for example we are going to start a new company, from the ground up.
