3 months. 10 startups. 1 ambition. Last week, I got into the #TractionLab startup program at HHL DIGITAL SPACE - The Entrepreneurship Hub. Someone asked a simple question there: “So… what exactly do you do?” I had answers. Too many answers. One-stop AI platform. Workspace. Agents. Orchestration. Collaboration And in that moment, I realized something: If you need 5 words to explain it, you don’t understand it well enough. That was my biggest takeaway from 3 intense days. Not just sales. Not just marketing. Not just fundraising. But clarity. Watching other founders, hearing their stories, and sessions like the one on AI in ventures by Dr. Maurice Steinhoff made one thing clear: Everyone is building. But the ones who win… explain it simply. Big thanks to Dr. Nino Tomini, Joshua Barthel, and the whole team for creating a space where you can be confused, challenged, and still move forward. And to the founders: you made it real. 🥂 Alfred Kaiser, Sophia Sowa, Samantha Lim, Nathanael Meyer, Lisa Erschow (艾丽莎）, Jakob Fuchs, Clemens Kommerell, Thinzar Khine, Max Müser HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management Let’s see where we all are in 3 months. #HHL #DigitalSpace #TractionLab #Pharen #Startup #Entrepreneurship #AI #Building
