?? Intensely proud at my student startup team: SolArea, who won the USTAAR first pitch final and came back with 10k$ in the pocket. ?? Next stop is 100k$ pitch in April. ?? Big congrats these founders: Ashlyn Mock, Gianni Hernandez and Aidan MacKenzie ?? ?? Their startup SolArea serves university campuses by providing safe, covered, good looking, fully renewable energy charging e-scooter parkings that beautify the campus as well as take away the growing headache/liability of cluttered scooters on the walkway. With the guidance of the University of Miami College of Engineering (CAE) of Matthew Trussoni and myself, they were able to not only invent this technical design but in addition build an attractive business proposition around it. #startup #USTAAR #solarenergy #solar #parking #escooter #win #Miami #Techhub #UM

Finding your next startup investors is all about trusting you as a person and if they believe that you can make the business promise happen. To be introduced by investors of your current cap table to your next investors can make a world of difference. Nurture those relationships, see if they have the network, and ask them to support you raising your next round. This was also mentioned during the 745-Person Investor Summit "Instant Trust Booster: During the event, it came up that for some investors who referred you over to them, it may matter more than what you are raising capital for. In other words the trust implied through a trusted introduction means more than what you write in your pitch deck".

Interesting insights on hiring from 745-Person Investor Summit ?? People Opportunities: Billionaire Larry Connor said on stage during my fireside chat with him that 90% of problems are people problems, and 90% of opportunities are people opportunities. Also, interestingly he never hires people from his industry, they come with way too much baggage and limiting beliefs, he trains them on how they do things instead, and gets 2.3-4x productivity out of the staff paid the same as in-industry staff which know what the "norm" is that he wants to stay far away from.

Nederland heeft nog steeds grote stikstof problemen en kan daardoor niet bouwen, terwijl er een hele goede oplossing is. Eén enkele oester filtert ruim 200 liter per dag inclusief het stikstof uit het water en indirect uit de lucht. Een oesterbank levert daarmee heel veel stikstofcredits op waardoor er weer ruimte kan ontstaan om te bouwen. Er zit een geweldig bedrijf in Rotterdam genaamd Oyster Heaven die dit op grote schaal aan het toepassen is in de Nederlandse, Belgische en Britse wateren. Ik zou deze oplossing daarom op grote schaal gaan omarmen en verder helpen, want de oplossing wordt je bijna letterlijk op een zilveren schaaltje geserveerd door de founder George Birch, MBA https://lnkd.in/eBKV9VYc #stikstof #oesters #credits #bouw #woningcrisis Koninklijke Bouwend Nederland #Schoof NOS Mona Keijzer
