We’re joined by Ethan on this week’s episode to talk about his journey in tech and how a big part of that has been serendipity. It’s also a big part of tech in general. And speaking of tech, we debunked some myths and discussed the difference between understanding and developing tech. Of course, with Ethan on the episode, we just couldn’t skip the topic of the creator economy, NFTs, Web3, and blockchain. Tag along and let us know your thoughts!  Speaker: Ethan Pierse, Founding Partner at Borderless Ventures, Co-Founder at NFT Factory Moderator: Lauma Sīle

Today we are joined by Margot who is a cofounder of a startup you definitely need to check out. Especially if you're located in Amsterdam. We discussed some learning, fun times, and struggles of developing a startup. After that we jumped in to discuss the main character of this episode - plant based cheese. There are so many misinterpretations of plant based products and I really hope that this episode will spark a little curiosity to try out more of what is out there. Hope you're excited and let's jump into the episode. Speaker: Margot Vandevoort, Co-Founder of Willicroft Moderator: Lauma Sīle

On this episode, we are joined by Mia Wähälä, Talent at Lakestar. Mia has a very interesting (and you could say non-traditional) journey to the startup world. However, that is what makes her so good at attracting and evaluating top talent. She has been working in some of the top VC funds in the world and has just recently joined Lakestar. We discussed how to attract the right talent for the job, how can you as the talent build your professional profile and stand out, what role mentorship take in one's professional journey, is experience abroad crucial, and how do you build an inclusive culture after you have hired the top talent. Speaker: Mia Wähälä, Talent at Lakestar Moderator: Lauma Sīle

On the very first episode of the new season, we have a founder whom you have definitely heard of. Either it’s for the successful company that she has built or the support she has shown to the community over the years.
