Getting Your Startup From 1 to 10
Event has EndedAbout this Event
You've probably heard of going from "Zero to One," the title of a book by Peter Thiel. In this talk we'll instead introduce ways to go from "one" (the start of a small business), to "ten" (the start of a scalable business).
Presented by Paul Orlando, professor of entrepreneurship at USC, Director of the USC Incubator program, and Program Director of the Laudato Si startup accelerator supported by the Vatican in Rome. Startups in Paul's programs have have been acquired, have raised over $20M in funding, and have conducted multiple successful crowdfunding campaigns.
There are many paths from 1 to 10. We hope that after the event you'll come away with new techniques to benefit your work.
