NEW CONTENT
On Wednesdays, we take a deep dive into the content that is inspiring us, answering our most burning questions, and helping us reach the next stage in our journeys, whatever stage of it you might be at.
We spend our weeks talking to the community and gathering insights on the things they want to know about most. Here’s what we’ve come up with for today.
Today, we’re diving into fresh content designed to support those in the trenches—whether you’re navigating the early stages of building or the relentless grind of fundraising. Expect insights, inspiration, and a boost to keep you moving forward.
TODAY’S STORY
Kazi Ahmed, Co-Founder of Carbon6, is a seasoned entrepreneur with a proven track record of building successful businesses. His deep expertise and strategic insight empower him to navigate challenges and drive progress, even in the toughest times.
In this presentation, Kazi shared more on the ‘punches’ you take as an entrepreneur, the ones he took along the way, and why it’s important to have an open mind throughout the process.
“What really drives you forward is having the courage to realize that everything you know about the world, is probably wrong, and I really need to think about what I need to do to get to the next level.”
Check out everything Kazi had to share about the tough lessons learned and how it has ensured his ongoing success today.
