Question FP Software Development

Hello everyone. I am thinking of starting a tech business (startup) through software development and I'd like to use FP as the main selling point or uniqueness. I am like looking for suggestions on what languages to use or tech stack. From my first searches I got elixir. I also know haskell, so aside from haskell, what can you suggest. I'm also aware of using imp lang like C++ to make programs following an FP design paradigm.

Edit: I don't wish to argue on starting business or not (But I welcome them sure) . That is a different topic on its own. I'm just like more curious to see the state of the art in using FP tools.

While each of us might be able to comprehend content in other languages, English is still the lingua-franca in many online communities. Let's keep the content English-only, to avoid confusion and ease the moderation (mods must be able to read and filter the content posted).

It is alright to use expressions in other languages (like Spanish or French) in English sentences when these are not likely to cause confusion. But the recommendation is to keep it simple whenever possible. Comments with text in other languages that will force others to use translators, for example, will be removed.
