AI.STARTUP.HUB Hamburg’s Post

😍 "The best thing about the program is the exchange with other startups." We wanna know: How are our startups from the current Summer Batch 2024 experiencing the AI.STARTUP.HUB Hamburg program? 🤝 Our AI Ideation Program participant Dr. Laura Karim addresses a key factor of our program: Collaboration. Her most valuable input so far is being able to interact with other startups in our community and learn from each other. Knowledge is always in flux with us! Our co-working space does the rest. This is where our teams come together for workshops and to make progress. 🫶 A big thank you to Laura from XIVR for taking the time to give feedback on a busy workshop day.

Some things yesterday at Allied For Startups - the first public summit held in Brussels The panel about startups and scaleups: - Kill your darlings, one of the obstacles for scaling is being in love with your idea(s) - it is important to be naive in order to scale; - more interesting was the discussion between a startup and a scaleup; there is no clear definition at an EU level on the criteria for each category. so we rely on what OECD says; - on the level of startups, we are somehow competitive with the US, but when it comes to scale-ups, we are seriously behind. Panel on AI regulation: - it seems that we are in the forefront regarding the regulation of AI - there were initiatives in the USA as well but the application was not so good. So they will also be inspired by what we do in EU; - we are seen as over regulating innovation and this leads to competitiveness problems. We are also becoming a harder market for non-EU companies to access. Regulation is coming...it's in the oven &others #allied #startups #summit #business #startup #scaleup

Magic AI won't help your startup succeed. A few days ago, I was at an AI Founders Meetup where we were sharing our experiences in startups, and I realized one key thing: In my startup, Apiway, I also made this mistake. I thought that for the customer, it is more important how we are solving a problem, but not what problem we are solving. The reality is quite the opposite. At this meetup, founders were discussing AI and how cool it can be.  However, they didn't think about real people's problems, how many people in the world have these problems, or if they are already paying to resolve these problems, etc. They were just trying to fix things that aren't broken, and they tried to do it with AI. I also did this with Apiway, and life hit me hard.  If you can resolve the problem without AI, it is much better than using AI to resolve a problem that doesn't even exist. #AIStartupMistakes #MagicAI #StartupWisdom #AIinStartups #RealProblemSolving #CustomerNeeds #StartupChallenges #AIForStartups #StartupReality #TechStartupMistakes #StartupInsights #AIFoundersMeetup #StartupExperience #RealWorldProblems #AIvsRealProblems #Entrepreneurship #StartupMindset #StartupLessonsLearned #BusinessInsights #AIinBusiness #StartupFailures #BusinessMistakes #AIInnovation #TechStartup #AIWisdom #BusinessReality #TechEntrepreneurship

A lot of hype and a lot of startups lately, see the picture below. But before your company's #generativeai strategy depends on such start up, remember this: 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐥. Why? Because that is just happening for more than decades. These generative AI startups are no different. And because I asked #bardai what the failure rate is of startups. It anserwed "The failure rate of startup companies is high. According to various sources, up to 90% of startups fail." So it must be true 😊 But we can back test the failure rate, I have set a reminder for over four years to count the number of companies that are still alive form the picture below..... picture by Kelvin Mu
