Insights, Beliefs, Hunches
I am currently part of an incubator program that is meant to bring promising startups together with venture capital investors. In order to appeal to a VC fund, you need to demonstrate that your company could become a multi-billion dollar business. This pushes me to think very hard about how NoGame could scale into a…
Going all in
I recently quit my day job to focus exclusively on entrepreneurship again. In order to find a co-founder, funding and mentors I applied to three different company incubators: Entrepreneur First, Antler VC, and Reaktor Berlin.
