F2 Weekly #36 | Being a Great Host π
Recently weβve been receiving many visits from people who wish to get to know Founders Founders better, especially students. π Although itβs difficult to take a few hours from our task-packed workdays and dedicate them to others, I believe we should do it. πͺ
These visits are a way of giving back to the community and are of extreme importance.β Why?
Well, not only because itβs the βrightβ thing to do πΒ but mainly because we have the chance to influence someoneβs future. π In those few hours, we can inspire others to pursue their dreams.
Simultaneously your employees, or in our case, our resident scale-ups, get a moral boost too. πΒ They pitch their projects, team and how far they have already come. These visits also contribute towards a greater exposure of their projects and a stronger market reputation. π
At the same time, opening up our doors πͺ allows us to become richer in new perspectives from people outside of our projects. π€ Sometimes we can realize a whole new paradigm about our project just by sharing it.
These are all good reasons to back up why we at Founders Founders aspire and work everyday towards having a strong community culture where giving back is a must. Starting from our inside peer-to-peer mentoring to the sharing with the world the learnt lessons. π
Givers always gain.π
