This week David talks to entrepreneur and founder Artur Sychov about his journey from realising his product vision, to choosing to walk away from the company he created. We all know life as a cleantech entrepreneur is not easy, bringing a product to market in a nascent sector especially so. Having the right investor/funder is also mission critical. Artur shares some his experiences, learnings and advice from this thrilling but ultimately frustrating experience.About our guestArtur is a former investment banker and energy trader, a Finance and Management MBA, that fell in love with the Tesla Model S, and developed an EV Charging product for multi-storey car parks and parking houses, despite being a finance person, not an engineer. He has learned enormously from his recent experiences and will be back soon with a new project.Artur Sychov in Linked In https://www.linkedin.com/in/artursychov/Easycharge.me on Fully Charged https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KT86ICX6VsIFollow us onlineTwitter https://twitter.com/weekincleantechFacebook https://www.facebook.com/thisweekincleantech/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/davidhunt2013/About Hyperion Executive Search:Hyperion are a specialist executive search firm working with some of the most innovative cleantech companies in the world, helping to find extraordinary talent to enable their growth and success.
