Starting and scaling a company is one of the most exciting — and challenging — journeys a founder can take. Along the way, the choices made in the early stages of building a team, structuring agreements, and defining roles can have lasting impacts on success. This workshop is designed to help founding teams avoid common pitfalls while learning practical strategies for long-term growth.
Led by Aleks Gollu, Founder & CEO of 11Sight, the session will cover the realities of co-founder dynamics, equity decisions, and operational structures.
