VC turned professor turned entrepreneur. Empowers fellow company builders with HippoMeter. Loves Ilves Tampere, alpine skiing, family, friends, and fools.
Ahead of Slush, it’s painful to remember that 90% of startups fail. To turn the tide, founders need dedicated company builders on their side to share the risk and responsibility. No new mega funds could provide what is required.

We too easily accept that 90% of startups fail. This leads to nations pushing for quantity and a fierce competition over funding. For game-change, we need to push for savvier teams. This will lead to fewer startups and investors competing over them. In result, 90% of startups will rather succeed.
