À propos de cet audio
Edward Keelan, Partner at Octopus Ventures, shares his experiences growing up with dyslexia, pursuing his passion for entrepreneurship and his career in Venture Capital.
With over 13 years of investing experience, Edward talks us through growing up in an entrepreneurial family, the lessons this taught him from a young age and his commitment to mentoring young people who wouldn’t typically have access to such careers.
Here are 3 key takeaways from Episode 6:
1) To be the best, you have to outwork those around you. Talent will only get you so far. If you can outwork those around you, the sky is the limit.
2) Learn to become comfortable with failure. It's the only way to develop as a person but can also be the hardest skill to harness.
3) Being in a position of privilege is only powerful when you are able to serve the communities who nurtured you. Volunteer to help your community and open doors for people.
