Do you have a killer idea for a tech startup? Do you plan to go alone or bring co-founders on board? How do you deal with when co-founders do not contribute? Know how to structure the shareholder agreement? At what stage should you seek external investment, and from whom? Should you spend time getting the company investor ready or focus 100% on product/market fit? Should you use deal makers to reduce time to investment?

Are you on your way to launch your first tech product? Are you coding away without engaging with potential customers? How do you plan to achieve product/market fit? Would you like to learn from others who have gone through the same journey? Would that help you to avoid mistakes and reduce your timeline to product launch?

Have you just launched your first product? What has been the reaction from the market? Have you achieved product/market fit? Do you have the resources and infrastructure to take the product forward? Want to hear how others are addressing the same issues?

Are you generating a truck load of cash? Then please come and share your success story and inspire others to take the risk of setting up and grow tech companies.
