Lessons Startups Can Learn from Sex
We all know that business and startups are dominated by men. We're all familiar with the effort to attract more women in technology and support women founders. But what is not often talked about is how any successful company requires the inclusion of masculine and feminine qualities. In this interactive session, Mara will talk about her journey from radio journalism and calligraphy to navigating the startup labyrinth to working towards the outcome so many founders want, building a profitable, sustainable, balanced company that matures over time.
With the awesome Mara Zepeda.
Can't wait to see you all!
