Startups In Big Companies

/in /by

This is an invitation for our event next Monday. And a short remark on startups and corporations.

On Monday, October 8th, we hold a meet-up for entrepreneurs with guys from Seznam.cz (Czech internet #1 company, 1000 employees in a few months). It’s about their experience with product management, UX, launch, marketing, PR, …

Some people have asked me why Seznam and startups? What can entrepreneurs learn from corporate guys? I’m sure this is a big mistake of many geeks. I like these words from Saul Klein who worked in corporations and has become one of best investors, a great motive WHY: ‘You learn a lot about scale, you learn a lot about process. Any small company really, hopefully, aspires to be a very, very big company and having worked inside some of those big companies, I’ve a sense for what a small company looks like when it grows up.’ (Read the whole interview by Ivo Spiegel for Kernel.)

This is why it’s really worth coming (if you’re in Prague).

Final Countdown to Demo Day

/in /by

Just a couple of days and StartupYard 2012 teams will show at Demo Day what they have accomplished during last 3 months. Busy 3 months.

The Demo Day will be a celebration of entrepreneurship and we’re looking forward to see many people from Europe, US, or Canada who will arrive to enjoy the evening. A special thanks to all of our judges who will fly over the ocean or arrive from European countries, 6 judges, 5 nations:

If you wanna meet some of these guys one-to-one we’re going to hold a pub summit 🙂 on Monday from 7 pm, just add your name to a list.

P.S.: And don’t forget the Demo Day night will be long. Afterparty follows from 10pm in Jet Set. 🙂

A nice post
