“Work hard and learn how to deal with your failures, because you’re going to have a lot of them.” - Gerry Pond, Co-Founder of East Valley Ventures and winner of Startup Canada’s 2014 Lifetime Achievement award. According to Pond, a successful entrepreneur is determined to stick with their business until the revenue stream starts flowing. And when is it time to accept failure? “It’s like baseball,” he says. “Three pivots and you’re out.” In this episode of Startup Podcast, host Rivers Corbett interviews Gerry Pond on micro entrepreneurship, starting up in Atlantic Canada and bouncing back from failure.
