Idea to Unicorn: How to get s#!t done when you’re a startup founder
One of the biggest challenges founders face as they get their idea off the ground is what to do next to make it happen.
That’s what we explored recently in the series Idea to Unicorn, presented by Startup Daily in partnership with Microsoft.
Over two days at Tank Stream Labs at the Sydney Startup Hub, we looked at the steps you need to take to get your startup up and running, from execution to hiring the right team and securing investment.
We spoke to founders, venture capitalists and others working daily at the coalface of startup life in a series of panels, presentations and one-on-one conversations we’ll be sharing with Startup Daily readers over the coming week.
This presentation, featuring Bree Kirkham, Chief Operating Officer of Folklore Ventures; Brad Delamare, CEO of Tank Stream Labs; and Nudge Group CEO Steve Grace, was titled Getting s#!t done: lessons on scaling quickly with the right people and partners.
We’re sharing the other five conversations and presentations designed for early stage startup founders over the coming days.
