Entrepreneurial Journeys and Resilience

Three great marketplace unicorn founders turned investors were brought together in this episode of myfirstminute from May 2020: 

Cristina Fonseca (Talkdesk  [$1bn private valuation] and Venture Partner at Indico Capital Partners)

Fabrice Grinda (Co-founder & Co-CEO OLX [acquired by Naspers], Founding Partner FJ Labs)

Paul Forster (Co-founder & former CEO Indeed.com [$1bn acquisition by Recruit])

They discussed a variety of topics that are personal to them but also topics for anyone looking to start a business. These ranged from struggling with imposter syndrome as a founder, acquiring initial market share in countries, lessons learned from successful but mainly, less-successful startups and their shared transitions to investors following booming exits.
