Join Startup Grind Grand Rapids’ Chapter Director Corey Hart and behavioural finance & corporate re-engineering expert George Katsanos as we host an event series tracking the intersection of facts, bias, and action through global markets and check-ins with entrepreneurs and Startup Grind Chapter Directors from all corners of the world. Joining us for this event: Luca Albertinazzi (Santiago).
Never before did founders, entrepreneurs and leaders of even the smallest companies need to think that their command of and understanding of:
epidemiology
economics
public policy
public health
history
psychology
sociology
financial markets
science
technology
language
engineering
mathematics
and more!
... and tracking where they all intersect from moment to moment would ever be so important to how they, their family, their team, their firm survives just the next couple days... and the next couple weeks... and the next couple months, let alone plan for next year.
The fact is that most entrepreneurs today didn’t have to lead through the great recession, they weren’t CEOs during the dot com bubble, they likely didn’t study the economic impacts of the World War I and Spanish Flu one-two punch on the global economy.
How are they to be expected to do anything but follow their guts or the reactionary examples of their peers?
The pandemic has been and will continue to be the great global leveler.
As leaders, entrepreneurs, and business leaders we should be informed, rational, analytical and rigorous in our thinking.
We would like to develop this into a global conversation, and we will try to have guests to speak on different topics and markets over the next weeks and months.
Startup Grind Grand Rapids is honored to host George Katsanos, a turnaround and crisis management expert with expertise in Behavioural Finance and Corporate Re-engineering as we give global market updates followed by an #AMA where founders and entrepreneurs can come for immediate and actionable advice for their startup or business.
Occasionally, we'll have special guest interviews for deep dives from various industries and institutions to help inform us.
Friday, May 29, we are pleased to host Luca Albertinazzi, Chapter Director of Startup Grind Santiago. Luca is also the Co-Founder & COO of Prosper Points, a successful startup that through a SaaS model provides a mobile application that rewards employees for responsibly using their smartphone during work hours. We increase productivity, improve employee safety, protect mental health, and elevate the working climate.
Prosper Points enjoys the support of Startup Chile, Corfo, angel investment, and dozens of clients.
Luca will give us some insight on how the epidemic is affecting the startup and entrepreneurial ecosystem in Santiago, Chile as well as provide advice to entrepreneurs at the event.
This event is a recurring event every MONDAY, WEDNESDAY & FRIDAY @ 12PM EST.
Depending on how many people show up, we can have people breakout into separate rooms for roundtable brainstorm sessions, and if we have enough experts, we can even pair people off with experts for 1:1 advice.
