Roundtable Recap: April 28 – Great To See Student Entrepreneurs

During this week’s roundtable, we did yet another romp around the world.

Place2Sport
First up, Nikola Dechkov from Sofia, Bulgaria, pitched Place2Sport, a platform for booking amateur sports venues like soccer fields and such, for Europe, starting In Bulgaria. I like the idea, and advised Nikola to assess the market scope for the venture based on revenue models and such. Nikola is a student, and his cofounders are also all students. Very nice!

TravelSpells
Next, Saurabh Kumar from Bangalore, India pitched TravelSpells, a travel planning service that brings travel and tour operators together on a platform, providing stories of experiences they craft and help put together for consumers. There are some great nuggets in the idea, but also some big missing pieces: what attracts the consumers’ attention in this very crowded field?

Roundtable Recap: April 21 – Choose Your Philosophy of Company Building

During this week’s roundtable, we had as our guest Ho Nam, Managing Director at Altos Ventures. Ho made a clear distinction between capital efficient company building and the “grow at costs in all sorts of unsustainable ways” philosophy. They are two distinctly different ways of building businesses.

Job On Buddy
As for the pitches, first up, Puneet Patel from Birmingham, England, pitched Job On Buddy, a marketplace for connecting temporary blue-collar workers in the UK with employers.

Bameslog
Next, Ajay Thakur from Bangalore, India pitched Bameslog which evidently has a large number of users and offers some sort of a content consumption app. The pitch was very hard to understand, and needs huge improvement.
