Welcome one more participant of the #web3growthcamp2 - founders hub! There are estimates that 92% of web3 startups fail within 18 months of inception which is higher than the rate of fails across all business verticals with the primary reasons being failure to secure funding, access marketing expertise and business infrastructure, and lack of proper guidance and support. founders I hub addresses that by building a global founder network connecting all the dots of the industry together – advisors, mentors, VCs, ecosystems, accelerators, but all of this with the web3 founders at its core, so they can get support through all of the stages before and after the launch of the product. 🚀 #yardhub #web3accelerator #web3founders #web3growthcamp

It was an inspiring event ✨ for those who are starting a project and for those who would like to raise investments. Mostly I liked the following ideas: -you should move your project as far as possible without VC investments; - first who should believe in a project is you and your co-founders; - you should set up limits and deadlines to measure success/failure. Many thanks PULSE! 👍 #Luxembourg #Pulse #Startups #Investments #VC #InnovationLuxembourg
