✨ Empowering the Future of Innovation Through Mentorship ✨ I was recently asked why in my busy schedule, I take on mentoring start ups. I tried to explain that the benefits to me and Exzellia Pharma Services are multiple versus the time invested and that the joy of witnessing "your" team succeed is very deeply satisfying. Mentoring startups has indeed become one of the most rewarding aspects of my career. It’s a privilege to guide aspiring entrepreneurs as they navigate the complexities of building their dreams into thriving businesses. For me, mentoring isn’t just about sharing knowledge—it’s about empowering visionaries to overcome challenges, take bold steps, and turn innovative ideas into reality. It’s about encouraging them to dream big while providing the strategic foundation they need to succeed. Its about seeing the timid ideas sprawling into efficient and impactful solutions leaving a positive mark on the world we live in making it a better place. Having spent over 20 years in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, I’ve witnessed how innovation can literally change lives. Supporting startups allows me to stay close to my purpose and to contribute to that transformation by helping founders: 👉 Refine their strategies to create impactful solutions 👉 Build resilience in the face of uncertainty 👉 Tap into opportunities for long-term growth A special thank you to KEMEL Non Profit Organization and Generation Ag Greece, for giving me the opportunity to contribute as a mentor to the Trophy Meet Up. Your commitment to fostering entrepreneurship and supporting the next generation of innovators inspires me every day. 🙏 To all the entrepreneurs out there: Stay curious, stay courageous, and always remember that every great achievement starts with a single idea! #Mentorship #Startups #Innovation #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Gratitude #KEMEL Non Profit Organization

At XLRI's Ingenium 5.0 Startup Conclave, Mr. Satish Kadu, Founder & CEO of Yoptima, shared insights from his 25+ years of experience in building brands, products, and platform strategies. During the panel discussion, Satish emphasized that first-generation entrepreneurs should root their ventures in shared beliefs and vision, making these the founding principles of brand ethos. He shared a simple yet powerful thought: entrepreneurial success isn’t just about solving problems—it starts with finding the right problems to solve. He urged leaders to value not just problem solvers, but also problem finders, asking, “Until you identify the right problem, what will you work upon?” He further broke down his startup’s culture, encouraging teams to ask more questions, nurture curiosity, and refine their ability to ask not just great, but the right questions—a trait he believes is essential for top talent. Concluding his thoughts on evolving problem-solving, he highlighted that actions must work within boundaries and constraints, and that sometimes, misalignment isn’t about knowledge but culture—making it necessary to address such gaps. Stay tuned for more insights from Ingenium 5.0! 🚀✨ #Ingenium5 #XLRI #StartupAlchemy #ProblemFinders #CuriosityDriven #Entrepreneurship
