How can I scale up as a startup CEO? 📈 Zoe Jervier Hewitt, VP of talent at Sequoia Capital, shares pointers for successfully making the transition from founder to CEO of a scaling company. Most startup founders don’t set out to become CEOs — and their leadership requirements change dramatically as a result. With the tougher scaling environment, it's no wonder we hear stories of founder burnout and CEO turnover — but that’s by no means inevitable. Read on to find out Zoe's advice on developing essential CEO skills, adapting to your strengths and blindspots and seeking the right support on your journey. #startupcommunity #startuplife #founders #startupscaling

We were thrilled to be hosting our very first Startup Life networking event yesterday in London, bringing together our community of startups! A big thank you to our own Anisah Osman Britton, Startup Life Reporter, Eleanor Lightbody, CEO at Luminance and Rishabh Mehrotra, Head of AI at Sourcegraph for joining us to discuss AI vs Employees: The future of the workforce. Is AI a threat to jobs? Here are a few key takeaways. ~ There’s lots of chatter about AI — but many companies don’t actually know how to implement it. ~ AI isn’t replacing workers, it’s just making them better at their jobs. ~ Sceptical buyers in traditional sectors require trial before adoption, clear direction on the problem the tech is solving and truthful answers. If you missed it, we also launched our new program #SiftedforStartups — a free subscription for startups of all sizes across Europe to unlock unlimited access to all of Sifted's award-winning journalism.

Is UK tech set for a Labour of love? 💘 The last time the UK’s Labour Party won a general election in 2005, the tech sector was a very, very different place. With the tech sector picking up $19.7bn last year there are signs of promising growth, however among tech folk two key challenges came up time and again: funding and access to overseas talent. One to keep an eye on is Mansion House reforms — which would unlock tens of billions of pension fund capital for startups. We are also yet to see if there will be more accessible visas and reduced anti-immigrant rhetoric to attract international talent. Will the UK's new government grant these wishes? Only time will tell. This article first appeared in our Sifted Daily newsletter, sign up here: https://lnkd.in/eZU-ufK7 #UKTech #Startups #LabourParty #TechPolicy
