So proud of Nicolas Muller-Vorburger, Eliott Sarrey, Ambroise Müller and the entire Arago team for their exceptional trajectory and ambition.
mondays at the castle: pitch, feedback and weekly commitments. together.
Moved into a castle to build a startup from scratch. 🏰 Week 1 at @joinTheBridge. Follow along for more gossip from the "Love Island of Startups" 👇
first week was wild: 20+ teams formed, 5 breakups, a few pivots. kicking off week 2 with 16 teams and 7 brilliant sole founders - getting really exciting
Magic will be made.
For the next two months, @santiarrecif and I will be building from a 16th-century castle in Germany. A clear lesson stood out so far: Design absorbs context. The magic of building from an inspiring place is noticing that no element was overlooked. You start seeking detail you…
