How to lure corporate talent in a Startup?

I think most entrepreneurs will know that it never goes right ... you see stories in the media of overnight successes ... but most founders will know this is not the case.

William Laitinen, CEO and Founder Exige

The FounderWe talk to William Laitinen (https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-laitinen-93282/, https://twitter.com/WilliamLaitinen), co-founder of Exige International an executive search agency (https://www.exigeinternational.com/).

During this interview, we are talking to him not only as a founder, who bootstrapped his company, sleeping on his cousins’ couch, but also who survived the global financial crisis starting in 2008.

A lesson to learn - from early on as possible - is: You are going to be facing problems in your team and your organization.

The Startup William started headhunting in financial services (Mergers and Acquisitions) and strategy consultancies during the early 2000s, with a laptop and a phone. He classically bootstrapped his company, starting crashing on the couch of his cousin and working his way up from there. He called it “the golden age of headhunting,” and like many others he thought it would always go on like this. So, he was in a great spot, just before the bankruptcy of Lehmann Brothers which almost froze hiring in Investment Banking and strategy consulting.

I was in the worst place you could be in the financial crisis ... I didn’t do a deal for 18 months.

William Laitinen, CEO and Founder Exige

William used the global financial crisis to change his focus and now is working primarily with insurance companies in Western Europe, specifically in Switzerland, as well as with insurtechs.

You will face a whole heap of problems and challenges starting a company ... Who you want to hire is really really important in overcoming the problems you will be facing.

William Laitinen, CEO and Founder Exige

Advice in Hiring

People leave their job for just two reasons: Logic and emotions.

William Laitinen, CEO and Founder Exige

William talks about hiring for startups, especially about the importance of the first hires. He is recommending looking for four core values in the new hires:

IntegrityHumilityAssertiveResilienceYou could add curiosity

I love hiring people smarter than me! You turbo charge your environment.

William Laitinen, CEO and Founder Exige

William also encourages founders to look for cognitive differences, especially in the first employees. Ideally, you hire someone smarter than you with different thinking, so he/she will be able to attack problems in another way. He is recommending a different gender, ethnicity or different demographics.

06/30/22 • 29 min

Welcome to This Month in German, Swiss, and Austrian (GSA) Startups in June 2022 by Startuprad.io. My co-host is again Chris from New York. This recording is sponsored by Invest-in-Hessen and Startupraven.com. It is in radio syndication with our very own station www.startup.radio, and our partner station IBGR.Network.

We recorded this new episode on Monday, June 27th, 2022. Keep in mind, that we will have a summer break and be back for you with another news episode on Labor Day, which is September 5th, 2022. In this episode, we will wrap up July, and August.

As always: All news not yet included here will be published in our next news episode in September.

We will also slightly change our publication schedule for this July and August, mostly going to one publication every two weeks. You can keep up to date with our Google Calendar for all publications.

Our highlights:

Startups in GSA also shedding headcount, including unicorns that recently raised money. All signs point towards them extending their runway, expecting a recession. Some startups face a challenging fundraising environment, but others like WeFox want to almost double their valuations. Also, Personio and Trade Republic raise additional funds.

In our “stay ahead of the curve” section, we have a lot of articles an entrepreneur should read to prepare for the potential downturn.

German economic minister Habeck is unveiling his new startup strategy, considering even a minimum investment in VC Funds for German insurers and pension funds.

The fast delivery startups seem to hit a wall and even formerly mighty Gorillas now explores strategic options.

Let’s talk startups: https://medium.com/@startuprad_io/this-month-in-german-swiss-and-austrian-gsa-startups-june-2022-2651b2b64fe

Swen Wegner, CEO and Founder Mainstage Incubator

Mainstage Incubator helps startups to conquer EuropeWhether your startup is from India, Bangladesh, Brazil, the United States, Argentina, Korea, South Africa, or even New Zealand, you can start exploring the German and European Market with the digital program of Mainstage Incubator.

Swen is half Indian, half German, and spent parts of his life in both countries. He spent his time in India for example in Kerala (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerala).

The interview was remotely recorded during a time of partial lockdown in Germany, due to Covid19.

Hint: You will hear Joe saying that this is the third interview, but the 2nd interview we recorded is the winner to be published on Nov. 28th, so our original order is screwed-up. Sorry, but at the time of recording, it was not clear, which startup would win.

iTunes: https://apple.co/2O2jwLx

Spotify https://spoti.fi/2qucve8

DISCLAIMER:As opposed to the usual Youtuber or Podcaster in the Blockchain space you don’t pay thousands of Euros to be here. AND neither am I invested in you guys. I am also getting NO kickback.

For everyone who is surprised about that, many channels work like this. Just pay attention to the people in Telegram Chats who ask for admin emails and “business proposals” they usually sent an offer with a price tag of several thousands of Euros, sometimes upwards of 50.000 Euros, just to be on their channel. Oh, and before I forget: They usually only want cash, they don’t take crypto.

Make sure you vet your main blockchain information source before you fall into those traps.

This interview is in media cooperation with Frankfurt Forward (https://www.frankfurtforward.com/startups-of-the-month). We talk to MINDS-Medical (http://minds-medical.de/), the Startup of the Month July 2019. In this interview, we talk to Lukas Naab, the startup’s co-founder and CEO (https://www.linkedin.com/in/lukas-naab-42b6a423/). In the interview, we learn how Lukas went from studying medicine to political sciences and comparative religious studies, only be back with a startup in healthcare in 2016.

Find more information and the complete transcript here: https://www.startuprad.io/blog/minds-medical-is-a-big-data-startup-which-helps-hospitals-with-their-unstructured-data/

Minds Medical’s algorithm helps with unstructured medical data, in the coding of patient treatment and the invoicing of them. Their main tool is an OCR software, with an NLP-AI behind it. The team of MINDS-Medical estimates a 50%-60% productivity improvement in coding processes with their tool.

Minds Medical’s algorithm can also help with medical risk analysis for insurance companies. The tool can be applied in health insurance and life insurance. The MINDS-Medical team estimates a 30% efficiency improvement with their tool. The tool currently helps to improve the decisions with their tools by 10-15%.

The startup is an Unibator Alumni (http://goetheunibator.de/?lang=en), which is the startup accelerator program of Goethe University in Frankfurt.

The startup already received seed financing in 2018 and is already talking to potential investors for a Series A financing round end of 2020. If you want to talk to them, reach out to us.
