I got a chance to interview the super-impressive founder of Cyphr (Formerly Foresight), Jannae Gammage for the gener8tor news page! My favorite part: What advice would you give someone thinking of taking the journey into creating a startup? "Stop thinking and start doing. Ideas are worthless if you don’t put in the work. Execution is the game. Also, be ready to fail — often AND intelligently. That’s when it's not a bad thing; it’s part of the process of building the callus and knowledge required to grow strategically." Check out the interview here: https://lnkd.in/g2T53rDA

A huge thank you to the institutions, companies, and individuals who have helped us reach this point—whether through discussions about the ecosystem, making nominations, or spreading the word about this project. This has been a community-led initiative, driven by in-depth conversations with regional leaders and community members to better understand the ecosystem's landscape.

Gratitude has become a game-changer in my life, both personally and professionally. Taking the time to pause and appreciate the small victories, the people around me, and even the challenges have shifted my mindset. As a goal-oriented person, I found it hard to embrace the journey or even the small wins; I was constantly just focused on hitting my goals. Having a gratitude-first perspective has allowed me to feel more fulfilled daily. While I struggle with this every day, consistently practicing builds resilience, equipping us with the strength to face life's challenges and open the door to growth. I'm grateful for the mentors, colleagues, and friends who have been a part of my journey. I encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on what they are grateful for today—it can change everything

What an exciting and vigorating experience this week at #finovatefall2024 ! Unlike most conferences where I leave feeling exhausted and drained, I leave feeling energized and motivated to continue doing the work. Standing on stage felt like more than just a demo - it was a reminder of why we do what we do. The energy and the collective drive the other fintech founders pushing boundaries proves the only way to do great work is to love what you do. Grateful for Alaia Martin, MBA and Nick Giuliani and the Finovate team for making this possible. More to come. ????
