We had so much fun listening to Mandela SH Dixon share about her . Thank you so much for your time!

We're so excited to welcome Mandela Dixon, founder of "Founder Gym", speak to our startups tonight. Once a week, Techstars Oakland hosts a founder to share their startup journey with our cohort. 🤩

Founder stories are an incredibly impactful part of our program. Founders who have achieved "success" share their wins and losses with startups who are currently pre-seed or early-stage. ⏰

Any successful founder knows what it's like to be frustrated, scared, and hopeless. But they also know what it's like to land that first customer, make that first sale, and feel like they did something impactful. They remind our startups why it's important to keep pushing even when times are rough. ✅

Founder stories also offer advice to early-stage startups on topics ranging from picking the right founding team to how to land your first investor. We're excited to hear what Mandela has to share with our cohort. Her experience in entrepreneurship, investing, advisor, speaker, and more, make her the perfect person to welcome to our first ! 😄

Thank you Mandela!
