Colors: Light II

I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – Light II

Roundtable Recap: February 13 – Validation Needs to be with Customers

During this week’s roundtable, we had three really interesting discussions.

MyEra

Up first Anirudh Sharma from Gurgaon, India, pitched MyEra, an e-commerce customization app that already has key customers.

Vizhil Super App

Next Vijay Kumar from Bliedersdorf, Germany, pitched the Vizhil Super App, a concept stage idea.

Justee.ai

Then, Max Zaykov from Shanghai, China, pitched Justee.ai, a LegalTech AI product currently at MVP stage.

Remember, when you think about validation, it HAS to be with CUSTOMERS. Not vendors. Not Investors. Not Friends. Not Family. Not Advisors.
