H/F Berlin Talk #11: You've got to play big to win big

Taking risks, what it’s like to fail, and how to come back from that failure by Nine Ten Capital We are excited to announce that we will have the partners from Nine Ten Capital joining us for our risky talk this month. The principals of Nine Ten Capital have closed over €3.5 billion in deals and assist companies in raising capital for their Series A and up. Gilad Regev and Eran Aloni from Nine Ten Capital will give pointers, share their personal experiences, and explain what it’s like to take risks as an entrepreneur. If you want your startup to succeed, you must take risks, both large and small. Sometimes those risks turn into failures, but other times they turn into a big win. Talking failure’s isn’t always easy, but these guys know that failing can be one of life’s biggest lessons. They are here to share their own failures and successes, what they learned from those, and how to bounce back from it.
