Episode notes

We are joined today, not by one but two guests as JP and Darren, who are Co-Founders of Who’s Fabio. Their business is focussed on helping Tech Founders, get their startup off the ground and raise the first round of funding. JP Luchetti aka PASSION. JP has worked on hundreds of new products for startups, venture builders, VCs, SMEs and FTSE 100 businesses, including Invesco, Intelliflo, Hermes, National Express, Sony, HBO, ESPN, Coca-Cola, GE and many more. He is a Venture Partner at Mr. Pink - A LATAM-based early-stage VC, and Venture Design Lead at Rokk3r, a Miami-based venture builder. JP was previously a Board Director at Mubaloo – a leading mobile app development agency in Europe, and a founder at IPH – a mobile app development agency in Argentina with offices in Miami and Mexico. Darren has also worked on dozens of new propositions including Sura Mexico, Maersk, Go Ahead Group, HSF, Hanson UK, ABRSM and many more. He was the Chief Product Officer at CoGo and Yolion – two FinTech startups in the UK. Previously, he was a consultant at Mubaloo – a leading mobile app development agency in Europe, and at Accenture. In addition to Who’s Fabio he also plays a Product and Venture Strategy role at Rokk3r. JP and Darren have also written a Book called Traction in support of their POV, see link below. Very enjoyable episode where we cover a key element of how founders should consider the problem they are solving, work out how to generate demand for their offer in a forensic way and this should significantly improve the probability of securing first investment into their venture, to allow them to scale their business into the future. Enjoy !
