Episode #21 Building a startup = launching a rocket

Building a startup is often compared to launching a rocket. It's a cliche for a reason. You need to assemble a skilled crew, build a machine that flies without falling apart, and then hope you can make it into outer space before the fuel runs out. Each member wears many different hats because it isn’t practical to hire a complete team of specialists right off the bat. For this episode we invited mentors in our Copenhagen fintech mentor program, Jesper Johansen, active investor & Troels Bulow, board member & senior adviser, to talk about these challenges startups encounter.
