TAKEAWAYS: TIPS FOR ENTREPRENEURS

Find a problem that’s big and create a business that can solve it.

A business is basically a gap between a problem and a solution. If it’s a small problem that you’re trying to solve, then it’s not that valuable.

Start spreading your idea, whatever it is that you’re passionate about.

As an entrepreneur, you are always scared that someone copies your idea. In reality, it is only if everyone is trying to achieve the same thing that the problem will be solved. But for that, ideas need to be discussed. If someone was going to take it and do it themselves, it’s good for them. But usually, if you’re the most passionate one in the room, it’s you who would attract the most passionate people and achieve the goal.

Look at your time – what is the thing that you spend most time on?

I know that there are people who spend their time in music and others who spend time playing football and they all become really good at what they do. And if that thing can address a big problem, you will attract a team that is also passionate to join you.

Ensure you take the right advice – it should not come from people that are in high positions in corporations.

It should come from people that actually created startups – that’s the only way someone could understand this journey. There’s no shortcut to it; you need to undergo the experience yourself.
