New Fishburners plan, pets & leadership, staying motivated remotely
Startup 360 cohost Majella Campbell is making her own news, with the Fishburners CEO releasing a manifesto on new ways of nurturing early-stage startups.
It comes as Fishburners prepares to move out of the Sydney Startup Hub after seven years, as the NSW government shuts it down.
This week's guests are Paloma Newtown, cofounder of Elita, a pet genetics and stem cell therapy startup; and Aakash Gupta, cofounder of boostrapped remote work team building and wellness startup Hooray Teams.
Motivated to by the health issues her own dog, Edgar Allen Paws, faces, she launched Elita (which raised $1.1m, pre-Seed) with her partner-in-life, biomedical engineer and dog coparent Jackson Gritching.
Paloma talks about her varied career - from hospitality to deep tech navigation startup Baraja, and cofounding the workplace advice site Grapevine - the leadership challenges of going from manager to founder, and how to get on with your cofounder when you also go home with them at the end of the day.
She's a powerhouse of ideas, but as a proud and focused feminist, reveals some telling moments in what she's experienced as a female founder, and how to cope on those days when you "feel like a genuine failure".
Meanwhile, Aakash is dealing with one of the great issues of modern workplaces - managing remote teams and keeping everyone inspired.He launched Hooray Teams, which runs virtual team-building events for remote, distributed and hybrid teams two years ago.
His global customer base includes one company with people in 23 locations, and Aakash shares his tips on how to get everyone getting along - trivia is popular - and the challenges of dealing with diverse cultures.
Startup 360 is more founder fund than founder mode. It’s all about finding out what makes people tick and staying human.
