The conversation that you need to be part of. Working in a fragmented and siloed ecosystem is not creating a good #return to our Ugandan #startup #ecosystem and with such a discussion, we should find new approaches to cocreate strategies to #collaborate and work together.

Collaboration is key to driving meaningful impact! As we strive to Bridge the Gaps and Build Resilient Startup Ecosystems, I'd love to explore potential partnership opportunities with like-minded individuals and organizations. Together, let's amplify our efforts to: Foster inclusive entrepreneurship Develop sustainable business models Enhance access to funding and resources Support policy reforms and advocacy If you're passionate about empowering startups and entrepreneurs, let's connect and discuss how we can create a more resilient and vibrant ecosystem. #Partnership #StartupEcosystem #Resilience #Entrepreneurship #Collaboration"

🚀 Insights from Session 14 of Rural Spain ClimAccelerator: Pitch Your Business! 🚀 We had an extraordinary session led by Leticia Rayas, a Consultant from #PwCSpain, who guided us through the art and science of pitching our businesses. This session was particularly remarkable for its dynamic activity, during which each entrepreneur had the opportunity to pitch, emphasizing the importance of presenting ourselves as our startup's most valuable asset. 🔔 Key Highlights: 🔖 The Power of Self-Pitching: Leticia emphasized that we entrepreneurs are the most important asset of our startups. Learning to pitch ourselves effectively, highlighting our unique skill sets and motivations, is crucial for turning our initiatives into reality. 🔖 The Secret Sauce: Showcasing our "why" and motivation is the secret sauce of a successful pitch. Leticia stressed the importance of conveying our passion and vision to captivate our audience. 🔖 Pitch Deck vs. Investor Deck: We delved into the differences between pitch and investor decks. Leticia clarified that pitching is a comprehensive tool that helps us communicate our ideas, initiatives, startups, and businesses to diverse stakeholders, including partners, colleagues, and clients. Leticia is passionate about promoting innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystems that address societal needs. With over 15 years of international experience across the Americas and Europe, she serves on the Board of Advisors for the Asociación Internacional de Startups and is a keynote speaker at global events. She has mentored various European Innovative Programs, and we are thrilled to have her expertise in our training. We are also excited to announce that Leticia will be our host during The #RuralExperience, our DemoDay, where we will celebrate innovation in rural areas. 💫 A heartfelt thank you to Leticia for her invaluable insights and guidance during this session. Our entrepreneurs are now better equipped to pitch their businesses effectively and confidently.

🤓 Nerding out while prepping for a workshop at EU Business School Munich on global accelerator programs! 🌍✨ It's always fun to dive deeper into the nuances of what helps entrepreneurship thrive, from ecosystems to communities. 💡 One key topic I'll touch on: the difference between entrepreneurial ecosystems and startup communities. Entrepreneurial ecosystems are complex, dynamic networks where various stakeholders contribute to innovation and economic growth (hat tip to the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation 🤝). Meanwhile, startup communities, as Brad Feld highlighted in the "Boulder Thesis," are grassroots-driven, entrepreneur-led, and foster a culture of openness and mutual support. 🤝🌱 🤔 What do you think sets entrepreneurial ecosystems apart from startup communities? Do you think of them differently? I’d love to hear your thoughts! 💬 Stay tuned for more insights from my session, and shoutout to all who contribute to the evolving world of entrepreneurship! 🚀🙌 #Entrepreneurship #StartupCommunity #AcceleratorPrograms #Innovation #BusinessGrowth #FounderSupport #StartupCulture #EntrepreneurialLeadership #GlobalStartups #EcosystemBuilding #BradFeld #KauffmanFoundation #StartupSuccess
