10 Things I Wish I Had Known as a Studio Founder

What to expect from this session: Get two founders in a room together and they will inevitably start swapping stories about the 10 things they wish they had known when they started their journey. Join Bruce Grove of Ansible Comms and Eloise Singer of Singer Studios as they discuss just that!

Delving into real-life stories, examples, and insights, Bruce will use his own founder experiences and ask Eloise about how she started Singer Studios, what her first steps were like, her investment and dev journey so far, and of course, to share the great, the terrible, and the bizarre of what she has learned along the way. Participants will hear first hand what common mistakes studio founders make, and what are the important things to know for success.
