Founders Live

Jag har alltid f?rs?kt undvika att vara med i pitcht?vlingar…men idag gjorde jag det och det var s? v?rt det! N?r man g?r saker man egentligen inte vill, breddar man sin viljestyrka. Men det handlar inte bara om personlig utveckling, ibland blir man ocks? positivt ?verraskad av resultatet. Idag tr?ffade jag s? m?nga grymma m?nniskor att jag n?stan gl?mde bort nervositeten. (N?stan????) S? kom ih?g att Face your fears! Stort tack till Vera Ulitenko f?r m?jligheten och till Jessica L. f?r all hj?lp med f?rberedelserna????

Before hopping on a plane to India for the International NDE 4.0 Conference, Ooga's co-founder and CEO Ajay Pasupuleti enjoyed having the opportunity to pitch at the Founders Live Raleigh-Durham pitch competition! Ajay had 99 seconds to talk about how Ooga is the one-stop platform for more reliable, faster, and cost effective Non-Destructive Testing, why digital transformation is so important in the NDT industry, and shared our company's growth trajectory. A big shout-out to the program sponsors—the American Underground, Aprio, Bank of America, ExtensisHR, and Michael Best & Friedrich LLP—for making this event possible and to Mallorie Langston & Marlana Bunn for organizing!

Everytime I come to London for work, I try to add in some networking events. Last night I was at Founders Live hosted at Forsters LLP What a great event. We got to watch 6 startups enter a pitch competition to win over $1M in discounts, tools and help. I would love to see Founders Live hosted by someone in the South West. I also got to networking with some awesome people. Senna Baillie Kofi D. Tom Bizzell to name but a few.
