In this episode, we dive into the world of startups with the founders of SELANA and FounderFuel, discussing the highs, lows, and everything in between on the entrepreneurial journey.

From scaling up SELANA with dreams of future tech like rockets to building FounderFuel, a vibrant community for startups in the Netherlands, they reveal the critical role of community support in achieving success. The discussion centers on striking a healthy balance between ambition and personal life, making the most of early opportunities, and the challenges of building while maintaining meaningful connections.


Key Takeaways:

  • Community over Competition: Founders Fuel champions a supportive environment where entrepreneurs can learn, access resources, and connect authentically with investors
  • Action over Perfection: The founders highlight the value of taking immediate steps rather than waiting for the perfect setup; just start, and the rest will follow
  • Mentorship and Networking Matter: They stress that mentorship and networking are invaluable. Learning from experienced founders can help newcomers avoid common mistakes and gain insights from those who've already navigated the challenges.


    • Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or a seasoned founder, tune in to hear insights on building impactful businesses, nurturing innovation, and staying grounded on the path to success.
