#25: How technology helps investors in search of startups - Penny Schiffer

mercredi 21 décembre 2022 • Durée 26:31

Imagine you are invited to give a talk at Stanford about your work as an investor. Excited, you board a plane to cross the Atlantic. And a conversation with a seat neighbour on that flight changes your whole life trajectory. You are now adamant about building your own business.

That’s exactly what happened to Penny Schiffer, CEO & Co-Founder of Raized.ai. After 10 years in venture capital, Penny decided to launch a startup to make this industry more intelligent. A psychology major, she had to ‘go back to the roots’ and re-discover her technical background.

Topics we cover:

What if your employees tell you, ‘You’ll never understand how it works, don’t even try?’
If you’re a founder, what should you know about how investors and algorithms assess your startup?
What should you do or avoid doing to increase your chances for a successful fundraising round?
Will machines replace humans in the investing process?
And finally, how algorithms can increase chances for underrepresented founders?

If you launch your own business, just forget about having a life. It’s only work, no play. And your friends and family will need to accept it. This notion is particularly popular in the startup world but how much truth is in it?

Jenny and Darya examine

why maintaining healthy relationships is a key success factor for entrepreneurs,
how couples can navigate the challenges of early-stage venture building: what can go wrong and how to prevent such pitfalls,
and Jenny’s own story of prioritising work to the detriment of her family life which brought her to building Coupleness.

mercredi 26 octobre 2022 • Durée 29:23

What do you do if after 10 years of a successful corporate career, you feel the need for a big change? Can you make a career pivot, start in a new area and still be credible? Your track record may have helped you to get that new job or a promotion. And the same track record may hold you back from making a leap of faith into building your own business or starting anything new.

Vanessa Westphal is COO and Co-Founder of Choosy, a personalised meal planning and grocery shopping assistant that makes forming healthy and sustainable eating habits effortless.

After 10 years at Siemens, Vanessa decided to dedicate herself to her true passion: nutrition.

#20: Be a leader worth working for - Kate Hofman

mercredi 12 octobre 2022 • Durée 30:26

How do you build an indoor farming company to produce delicious salads at scale and make the food system more sustainable? You may need to start with a greenhouse on top of a shipping container as an MVP. Then raise >100mln of euros of external funding.

Kate and I talk about being a leader worth working for, hiring and building teams, and walking away from the initial company identity. She also shares her experiences of pitching to investors while pregnant and building a business while raising a child.

mercredi 28 septembre 2022 • Durée 26:51
