The NASSCOM Innotrek Experience #9 / 101 In 2015, ActOnMagic was selected to participate in NASSCOM Innotrek, a special program where NASSCOM connects startups with global VCs. It was a wonderful program that provided exposure to TiE Silicon Valley and its ecosystem. We visited the offices of Google, Facebook, Y Combinator, and attended insightful sessions on building startups. These experiences were vital and provided founders with much-needed confidence. As a bootstrapping startup, I hustled a lot (like many other founders). I want to thank my friend Sambath and his family for hosting me at their residence for a week. I recall one VC who shared boldly about how VCs make money and how they choose to spend their time. If I remember correctly, VCs get a percentage of the funds they manage. If they return multiple X returns, they make multiples of that percentage. VCs focus on finding companies that can give 10x, 100x returns. At TiE Silicon Valley, the startup booths were very powerful! I learned lots of marketing tips. I remember a guy wearing a big backpack with messages about his startup and contact details on the outer side. Great exposure! An invaluable experience was travelling with other 39 startup founders in the bus, learning from their experiences and NASSCOM volunteers Reference: https://lnkd.in/gHJRXnxs Have a great day! #vc #startupstory #founder #actonmagic #sweetmantra #siliconvalley #Facebook #google #ycombinator #nasscom #innotrek

I just invited startups that used Decksender to the new hub I have created for them on HelpBuild. The mission to help startups get built - even without the traditional access to funding - just got rocket-fueled. With Helpbuild, they will organise their individual networks into an engaged force who are ready and willing to get stuff done. In the process, the founders will know who really has their back in this shallow network world and amplify the network effect to get successful. It takes a village to raise a child. It takes a network to build a startup. You can take a look at the hub page at https://lnkd.in/ddpj2dRZ - but it is exclusive to Decksender alumni, though I welcome your feedback. If you have a hub you would like to build and support - reach out. We have 8 more in the pipeline, testing things like: Causes Female-founder only startups North West UK focused Malta focused Malaga startups Climate focused VC portfolio experiment (this is exciting - we'll see which VCs have the imagination for this - those who do will win). And those are just the ones we will help launch and run. Lots more coming. More soon.
