‘Facing your fears’ the unspoken part of a start-up |
||
(sticK - 2 March 2012 ) Ponoko co-founder Dave ten Have fronted up to Unlimited Potential’s ‘Tech Founders Blast Talks’ in mid-February with some extremely frank and honest comments.
It’s ten Have’s second internet-based start-up, with Wellington-originated, globally-operating Ponoko being a bit of poster child for mass customisation/personal manufacturing. It describes itself as ‘the world’s easiest making system’.
ten Have described being in the start-up (and follow through) stage as being where “fear of failure is a constant”.
