Jens Grede

It's important.

It's the biggest part of the cake.

It should be.

If not, they weren't doing their jobs.

But as a founder...

You don't sit and think, I'm going to start this company because I'm going to make so much money with it.

For my investors.

For my investors.

That's why I'm going to go through this pain and give up my life to make sure that in five to 10 years time, I'm giving an excellent return to those that invested in my C round.

That's just not how you think.

You wake up and you say, I have to do it.

I cannot live with not doing this thing.

And then you've got to love it.

And you've got to love it through the great times because there is enough hard times in any entrepreneurial journey that you need a lot of love to carry you through.

I think Jensen Hong said the other day something along the lines of that he would never be an entrepreneur if he knew how hard it was.

I have to be an entrepreneur to do what I love to do.

the way I want to do it.

And I had to be an entrepreneur to realize the creative vision that I think entrepreneurship is.

So I had no choice.

This is what I had to do.
