@ako_858 الشركات الكبيرة عالميا ادركت الموضوع وبطلوا يستخدموا ERP في اساسيات التشغيل، وبيتم الاعتماد على برامج متخصصة .. وهذا السبب اللي بنبني عليه اومنيفل https://t.co/HItYQCEMMW والحمدلله انقذنا اكثر من ٦٠ شركة خلال ٢٠٢٤ من ERP implementations فاشلة من اكبر الاسامي مثل SAP و Oracle

@amaldorai @_kushgupta The variation in valuations is much smaller than the variation in quality. That's what determines risk, not their current traction. If current traction were a perfect or even good predictor, investing would be trivially easy.

being a VC is so easy, so high-status, the money is so great, and the lifestyle is so fun.

very dangerous trap that many super talented builders never escape from, until they eventually look back on it all and say “damn i’m so unfulfilled”.

VC's are FINALLY starting to realize the power of industry specific software aka vertical SaaS.

In the last few months I've seen more and more top tier investors come out of the woodwork with blogs and overviews.

Why the time is right for YOU to start a vSaaS business 🧵

there are times that you know are going to be way more fun to remember than they are to live through.

Marc Andreessen has grown a16z from their first fund of $300M in 2009 to over $25B+ in AUM as of 2022.

His framework for understanding any business is simple. It comes down to unpacking what he calls "the onion theory of risk."

Here's what he means...

Bull markets are won by storytellers and growth gurus.

Your job as CEO of a startup is to make the impossible happen even when no one believes you can do it so please building and please keep going.

The lesson for the tech industry in the FTX saga should not be that people were “duped”. There was a company operating out of the Bahamas, running Super Bowl commercials, with like 12 engineers, that allows people to day trade fake things. It was all there.

How the f*ck did this not raise a few red flags in diligence?

One of the most important skills for entrepreneurs and startup founders is being able to lose, fail, and still bounce back smiling with lessons learned.

[Mostafa Abolnasr @MostafaAbolnasr]

Indeed.

The more you understand your customers the better startup you'll build.

[Sam Altman @sama]

i am still amazed how most startup investors are great at understanding that startups can grow exponentially but don’t understand that markets can too
