Everyone Funding Startups show

Summary: Bill Attinger, founder and CEO of ActSeed and mentor to thousands of entrepreneurs in their community, joined us for a chat to discuss some common denominators in entrepreneurship and how value is driven on a global scale. With many shared values between Grow VC and ActSeed, it is easy to identify and relate to many of the point brought up in our own operations. Listen to the episode for topical points on starting up ventures, creating and sustaining value, the “Let’s just talk about it” – syndrome and many other subjects that are relevant for startups and their stakeholders alike. Listen to the episode in the player below. Here are some quotes from the episode: Actseed aims to solve the real problems of what we call, ‘unnecessary failure’ We have a real, I think a real misunderstanding, a common global misunderstanding of what entrepreneurship is and we think it all comes from a few spots: Silicon Valley, that it’s Google, that it’s Microsoft in its day or Apple. You can’t create the perfect template about how to create the perfect business. That’s kind of what makes it exciting, because you will never create the universal template. The attention economy works for a select few, whereas the wallet economy works for all of us.
