My entrepreneurial journey with Thibault Demoulin begun after I registered to the Innosuisse initial coaching and STARTUP CAMPUS Switzerland. I learnt during the lectures and coaching, about crafting and bringing a tech innovation into business world. I therefore recommend to Swiss entrepreneurs, graduating with technical, scientific background to attend the STARTUP CAMPUS Switzerland classes and apply for the Innosuisse coaching program.
In fact, besides the technical business knowledge, I will recommend it for 5 soft reasons:
1️⃣ Listen: to learn the vocabulary of the newbies entrepreneurs: canvas, pitch deck, business plan, customers acquisitions and more.
2️⃣ Critical thinking: to discuss in lengthen and decide on mistakes you will do anyway such as problem solution fit, product market fit, customer feedback, and execution process.
3️⃣ Decide: to identify and define action plan to bypass mistakes you would like to avoid at all cost such as taking money from wrong partners or investors, debt, legal, complex business structure and more,
4️⃣ Prove: to validate your technical initial idea with a pool of skeptic, experts, optimist, believer and more...
5️⃣ Team trust: to find a good, trustable, experience coach and ecosystem to develop, grow your business idea and yourself.
It is not a straightforward journey, be prepared keep your energy, effort, and commitment as high possible. Most importantly, don't discourage
✅ It won’t be easy but it is worth it .
✅ Don’t be too impatient, take the ride one step at the time, and persevere.
✅ Celebrate the quick win (still difficult for us to do), it keeps you and your team motivated.
This quote of Nelson Mandela summarises my entrepreneur journey so far: "After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb". Great thank to the Oxara team and our supporter 🙏
