Ethan Lee, CTO of Enumnet (Korea)

Ethan_Lee_150x150This program was the best turning point in our view of our business. The concrete teachings and the eye-opening feedback were definitely helpful. All the lectures helped our pitch to improve and become understandable to VCs. I feel this is critical for every startup company because you need to raise the money for your next steps!

This program transformed me from a function-oriented engineer into a real developer, who understands our customers and can help them go their right way.

I strongly suggest Founders Space if you are a tech-oriented CTO who thinks your product is the best in the world. Read More...

Make It New by Barry Katz

Make it New

Review: Just read “Make It New” by Barry Katz. This book goes into excessive detail on the history of design in Silicon Valley. It’s interesting only if you’re a total design geek and need to know the historical facts.

What it lacks is insight into the design process and thinking of these amazing people. What made them so original and innovative? That’s what I was craving and couldn’t find in this book. Read More...

Doggy PC

The wildest startup at Big Salad was a Doggy PC, where dogs can play video games, study and interact with a touch screen computer. Their video demo is hilarious. Dogs must unite and unleash their power!

Future Science: Essays from the Cutting Edge

Future

Review: “Future Science: Essays from the Cutting Edge” by Max Brockman isn’t so much a book as a collection of short, topical scientific papers.

The papers cover everything from gene splicing to life on other planets. They are written by professors from a number of top universities and are quite interesting, if you’re a science geek like me! Read More...

ELON MUSK: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future

Musk

Review: I just read “ELON MUSK: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future” by Ashlee Vance.

Despite his flaws, Musk is driven by a deep conviction that it’s his job to save the human race. This thinking drives every decision he makes. Unlike so many entrepreneurs today, he does not care about getting rich quick. In fact, he’s willing to risk every penny he has on his ventures. Read More...
