Entrepreneurship as an alternative career path offers some of the most exciting opportunities for growth on a personal and professional level. However, the journey comes with some potential pitfalls, that I would like to address, by using our own story - the tech startup CareerFairy - as an example. These include challenges such as:
- How do I start a startup after ETH without money
- How do I test, iterate and bring a product to market
- How to I get first customers
- How do I raise money from investors

He obtained his Master’s degree in Mathematics at ETH Zurich. After a few years spent working in Finance between London and Zurich, he fell down the rabbit hole in the world of startups and has been passionate about entrepreneurship ever since.
