In today's episode of ScaleX Insider, we dive into an insightful conversation with David Cohen, a distinguished leader in the startup ecosystem. In this episode, we discussed how to scale fast and why you should forget what you know because this is how it's done, what really makes a startup succeed, unlocking success by celebrating failure and understanding the startup formula for success. We also discuss the obsession behind entrepreneurial success, delve into Techstars' journey to empower entrepreneurs, and share startup strategies and insider tips for success. Additionally, we address the 15 by 15 by 15 challenge, the reality that scaling up isn't for every founder, and the essence of true entrepreneurs who prioritize action over talk.
