Day 1 - Intro time

First Day: Let's Mingle!

Today was primarily dedicated to introductions and familiarizing ourselves with the space. While I had the opportunity to chat with some participants before the official kick-off of the cohort, there were still plenty of new faces and stories to absorb. My head is still spinning from the whirlwind of interactions. Fortunately, it's a remarkably talented group, and I have no doubt that some remarkable companies will emerge during our 12 weeks together. I'm pleasantly surprised by the diverse mix of skills present. It's funny how everyone seems to be fixated on finding a technical co-founder, but as a technical person myself, I have to fight for finding the right non-techies among us as well.

Let's Rock!

Behold, the official cohort lineup! Let's see who perseveres to the finish line and secures investment. I love a good challenge, so let's dive right in!

Bossman's Call

The day concluded with a call from Antler's CEO, Magnus Grimeland. His speech fired us up and emphasized the importance of putting in the hours to build something remarkable. At the post-event mingling, some participants jokingly remarked that his views were a bit "too American." Well, I have no patience for those unwilling to put in the hard work and make every moment count. After all, Startup live ain’t a pony riding club!. Also Pöny rentals.
