1\ Since #CES is happening, and this year I'm not attending, time to tell the story of how I hacked CES a few years ago 😬

As an entrepreneur (and with recession and all), you have to know how to save every $

This is how I saved thousands of $$ and maximized my time @ CES... 2\ Some background first

Conferences have different business models, where a big part is selling stands \ booths

Stands usually come with a super expensive price tag

Even the cheapest ones

But that’s where conferences make their majority of income, and best way to meet people

1\ Everyone's been posting their 2022 summaries and 2023 predictions, but there's a clear trend noticeable the past few years in the startup & VC world, that's changing the industry, I haven't seen much talk about - and I believe is incredibly significant... Image 2\ Every young graduate wants to be a venture capitalist.
There's different reasons why so many young professionals want to go into VC - but the fact is - it's become a hot profession to pursue, and with that, there's been a big shift in the industry and in the profession of VCs

1\I tweeted about the “Oh $#!t” moments in the past and how the entrepreneurial ride is rough

Here’s another one of those crazy painful times

You can have all your puzzle pieces in place for your big next step, and yet, it won’t work out

And you’re left devastated…

Thread🧵 2\Some background first

Unlike a software startup, building a hardware product is 10X harder

It’s even in the name - HARDware

It’s a topic for a thread or even a few threads, but HW startups are way more complicated, demanding, and the ride is much tougher than SW startups

1\I’ve met hundreds of investors

Most investors ask the same exact questions

Rarely do you meet an investor that asks a question that actually makes you think

Ashton Kutcher (@aplusk) is one of the latter

Here's one question he asked that u should be able to answer

Thread 🧵 2\In 2013 @aplusk visited Israel

During the visit, he set a few hours to meet with local startups together with his partners, in his hotel suite

Every single startup in Israel tried to get into that short list

With some help @YitzKemp and I did (thanks @itamarw & @HilzFuld 😉)
