🌐 Not sure which tech industry to pursue in your sales career, and which one can provide you with stability and plenty of accelerated commission in the future? Choose wisely! These tech trends below are worth considering. Last night, I attended the Entrepreneurs Collective, delving into the latest tech insights from Alator Capital, Maven Capital Partners, and Hoxton Ventures. 🌟 They described 2023 as a detox – a correction for those hyper-growth companies. 2024 is looking more promising. There is capital available from VCs, but only if the tech truly solves problems. Looking beyond AI, here are the power players for the next 30 years: - Climate Tech 🌍 - Health/Med Tech for Life Longevity 🩺 - Biotech 🔬 - Clean Water Tech 💧 - Martech 💼 - VR/Entertainment/Content Tech 🎮 Michael Blakeley, well done for inviting high-calibre people from the VC and startup world! Looking forward to the next event. #TechTrends #CareerInsights #NoraOnTech 🚀

🔬📈 Bridging the Gap: When Tech Meets Business In the ever-evolving landscape of startups, successful ventures are often the result of a harmonious dance between technical founders and business visionaries. Here’s why this partnership matters: 1. The Tech Side: 🔹Technical Founders: These brilliant minds bring forth groundbreaking innovations. They code, tinker, and dream in algorithms. Their passion lies in solving complex problems. 🔹Scientists: Whether they’re data scientists, AI researchers, or domain experts, scientists drive technological advancements. They’re the architects of the future. 2. The Business Side: 🔹Business Acumen: Entrepreneurs with business acumen understand markets, customers, and growth strategies. They speak the language of revenue, ROI, and scalability. 🔹Scaling Up: A startup isn’t just about building a product; it’s about scaling it. Business leaders ensure that the tech marvels reach their full potential. 3. The Synergy: 🔹Translating Tech: Technical founders often need a translator. Scientists speak in algorithms; business leaders speak in market share. Together, they bridge the gap. 🔹Market Relevance: Scientists create wonders, but business leaders ensure those wonders meet real-world needs. They ask, “How does this solve a problem?” 🔹Monetizing Innovation: The sweet spot lies in turning innovation into revenue. Scientists invent; business leaders commercialize. 4. Successful Partnerships: 🔹Google: Larry Page (tech) and Sergey Brin (tech) partnered with Eric Schmidt (business) to create a tech giant. 🔹Apple: Steve Jobs (tech) collaborated with Tim Cook (business) to revolutionize consumer electronics. 🔹Tesla: Elon Musk (tech) and JB Straubel (tech) worked alongside business leaders to electrify the automotive industry. Remember, it’s not a battle of tech versus business—it’s a symphony of skills. Let’s celebrate these partnerships that shape our world. 🌐🤝 If you are building your startup from the tech side -->> let's talk #startup #startupgrind #startupecosystem #techstartups #founders #businesspartners #globalmarkets #innovation #scientists #CTO

#lack #research #market #size A key issue in StartUp Decks is Lack of Research Since the Founders are starting a Business and are going to put their blood, sweat and tears into it one would assume they would put a lot of Research into estimating the Market Size and the space which they would Target But is seems many Founders rush in too early without Research only to discover after a few years that they did not do enough Research. My view - Its better to do Strong Research now then discover later that the StartUp is not working out.
