Day 4: MAKING IT AS AN STARTUPPER SEEMS EASY It may appear effortless, but since launching my #startup, I've found myself pitching nearly three times a day. Whether in front of a single individual or a crowd of a 1000, introducing Ganiga to audiences always fills me with joy. This opportunity has granted us access to some of the world's most prestigious pitch events. However, this time was different. Presenting before giants such as George Parrish, Paolo Privitera, and Alberto Acito, after embarking on this journey alone and leaving behind an incredible team that provided me with the peace of mind to navigate through critical periods of deliveries and pending developments, is a challenge not everyone can embrace. Starting out solo in a city where industry titans emerge daily is an even greater test. Doing so in a language not native to me, among individuals who have witnessed the world's greatest #founders, defines the challenge that propels me beyond my comfort zone. The pre-pitch tension evoked memories of stepping into the ring, igniting an exhilarating rush of adrenaline! Reflecting on our achievements, goals, the upcoming #fundraising round, and particularly on the born the idea, stirred profound emotions within me. It served as a poignant reminder of the vast ground we've covered in such a short time, reaffirming that despite the hurdles, we are indeed on the right path. We may not fit the mold of the quintessential startup, boasting founders from #Stanford or a series of successful #exits, but we are a fledgling startup with crystal-clear objectives and the unwavering determination to see them through. We're committed to giving our all and refusing to settle for anything less. Expressing gratitude to George, Paolo, and Alberto for their invaluable feedback feels inadequate. I am simply honored to have been selected by Innovit - Italian Innovation and Culture Hub for an experience that will remain with me for a lifetime. Lastly, but by no means least, my heartfelt appreciation extends to our mentors (Edoardo Mainella, Irene Mingozzi, Nathan Trueblood, Piero Molino, Leandro Agro', Pancrazio Auteri and Francesco Bertolini PMP CSM, ) for their personalized guidance prior to the pitch. Each of them has contributed a piece to our ongoing adventure. The story of Ganiga has only just begun. Thanks.

For a while now we’ve been running intimate exploration-ideation-validation workshops, presenting a framework for spotting and exploring ‘off the spotlight’ markets and ideas, and talking more in-depth about our pre-consensus approach. Every time, they are booked solid.   At scale, the framework presented in these workshops could make a real change in the Israeli ecosystem by diversifying the domains founders choose to pursue. That being said, we didn’t want to change the intimate nature of our gatherings, so we looked for new ways to share it with a wider audience. Thankfully, Startup for Startup picked up the glove and is partnering with us so we can get to more founders and founder-curious people. So right after Passover, we will co-host our biggest workshop to date. This is very much a trial… and we welcome you all to be a part of it. The workshop is designed for anyone who’s thinking of starting something new. That includes scaleup execs, early employees at early-stage startups, entrepreneurs in ideation, and anyone not on this list who knows they need to be there. Apply to register in the first comment. Thank you monday.com Darya Wertheim for making this happen. 

If you've been following our series ‘top tech start-ups in Africa’ you'll already know we've been on a mission to celebrate startup success stories from across the continent. This month we look at MYDAWA a Kenyan e-based company that's geared toward enabling its customers to live positive, healthy, lifestyles. We unpack how they're making their bold and important mission statement ('Live Well, Stay Well, and Get Well') a reality. #africantech #techstartups
