There’s no one better to talk about startups than investment experts with a startup of their own, so this week we’re bringing you all the pro tips and lightbulb moments from BETA100 founders, Camilla Carrapatoso and May Ireland. They believe you can build anything into a business; are you ready to hear how?

Camilla and May know how to work with businesses. They also know that not everyone is cut out to be an entrepreneur. At times, it can be gruelling and if you don’t do the work, you don’t get the pay day. It’s a harsh reality, especially if you come from a stable and successful career to begin with, something our guests know first-hand. However, there’s nothing quite like working on your passion… especially when you get to be boss; it’s what makes startups contagious, and we’ve caught the bug!

BETA100 is all about uniting talent with opportunity. Those looking to invest their time and passion can be rewarded with cash, commission and equity, all whilst helping startups to flourish! It’s a brilliant space where founders can find the skill-base they need and investors can discover their next challenge. We LOVE to see incredible professional relationships like these developing, so Nargis Jafferali and Demos Demetriou will be providing a thorough grilling as they get to grips with Camilla and May’s amazing story. They’ve gone from corporate employees to independent founders and we want to hear it all. No one gets off lightly here!

At blazon, we’re not shy. The conversation will include all the difficult bits: building a startup means making yourself vulnerable in a new market. When you lack structure, experience and money, you might think you’ll never make it… but we believe otherwise! In fact, entrepreneurship is on the rise and there is more opportunity than ever before; we’ll hear how you can even build a business from a newsletter!

Insights and energy like Camilla and May’s are what makes conversations like these so important. From founders who are less broke than you might think, to how to find the right team, to top tips and biggest mistakes; there is so much to learn from our guests. They had their own lightbulb moments and by sharing them, they might just prompt yours!

Lightbulb moments are the spark of energy that activate a startup blaze. Are you ready for sparks to fly? Let’s talk startups!
