Five of our exciting Validation Stream teams in the Startup Launch program had a great session today with Edwin Onggo, Founder & CEO at GiggedIn - Netflix for live music gigs - and a longtime BlueChilli company. It was a broad-ranging conversation on everything from iterations and pivots to funding strategy, product, marketing, mindset, vision and more!

Any learnings you can share to us?
"There is no cause for concern if you need to reset. We have evolved in the timeline (6 to 3 months), structure, and platform. The best companies are very iterative in their approach, they modify as they go"

Any learnings you can share to us?
"If you're doing a start up yes there's a high chance of failure, but even if you fail there is no better way to experience the amount of stuff you’ve learnt on the way. And if you want to take those skills to the corporate world you can learn something that would have taken 10 years in just 6 months with a start-up."
