Nexthink\'s story is one of resilience, something Pedro believes is key to any successful company and entrepreneur. Bados created the firm in 2004 as a result of his research project at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne and 17 years later it has reached unicorn status. As a football lover, he believes becoming a unicorn is equivalent to playing in the Champions League and that the next step should be to become the winner.\\xa0

Bados\'s communication tips for successfully leading a start-up include the importance of letting people know that there is a solution to their problems and being mindful about the things you say and standing behind your words. He also acknowledges that being an engineer makes him more conservative in his promises but that to be successful it is necessary to take risks and sell the dream, especially when communicating internally.\\xa0
