Samuel Villegas: Why Start-Ups Fail and How to Choose the Right CTO

In this episode of the Atom CTO Podcast, Bhairav and Samuel Villegas (from Two Five One EU) dissect the concept of failure in startups: a delicate yet critical aspect of entrepreneurship. They challenge the traditional stigma of failure, framing it instead as a pivot point that could lead to a more successful journey. They continue to break down the reasons behind startup failures, factoring in aspects such as emotionality and over-optimism, and the potential consequences of an inability to accept reality and change course. Drawing attention to entrepreneurs' journey, they deliberate the transition from an employee to a founder; highlighting that industry experience though important, isn’t all encompassing. They share their views on the growth and insights that come from failures, focusing on second-time founders, while reframing our perception of success and failure in the entrepreneurial world. Tune in for an enlightening discussion on these realities in the startup ecosystem.
