This week, we\u2019re joined by Piotr Pisarz, Founder and CEO at Uncapped, who lets us in on his mission to empower founders who are changing the world.
\n
\nAs the economic downturn looms over us, we dive into one of Sifted pieces on what the recession means for European VC and how the trouble they might be facing is "mainly driven by a significant reduction in runway". "If you're a founder,\u201d Piotr says, \u201cyou should really prepare to have a runway at least for the next 12 months."
\n
\nWe dive into the next piece on the common 'half-truths\u2019 spoken in the startup ecosystem, such as exaggerating annual revenue. Piotr points out that "your job as a founder is to market your company and to position it in the best light possible, to appear bigger than you are and to scare off the competitors."
\n
\n"I realised saying no is much more important than saying yes," Piotr admits as he shares his biggest takeaways as a founder/entrepreneur. \u201cIt's interesting because you want to help others, but it's very difficult to find time in a scalable way and you have to take care of yourself."
\n
\nPiotr\u2019s work at Uncapped is funding the next generation of entrepreneurs, driven by the resolve that they shouldn\u2019t have to give away ownership of their company to support growth. Uncapped provide no-security and no-equity investments from \xa3100k - \xa310 million.
\n
\nThe episode continues to explore Uncapped, a company born out of Piotr\u2019s frustration with the less-than-ideal funding options currently available to entrepreneurs. We also find out his dream tech product and Uncapped\u2019s big prediction for the Tech-for-good space this year.\xa0
