Co-Founder & CEO sequel, Co-Founder Velocity Black (acquired by Capital One)

The worlds of sport & entrepreneurship have many similarities. 📈 They both exhibit extreme power laws - most athletes and founders fail - and the lion's share of the rewards are shared by even fewer who reach the pinnacle of their respective games. 💪 Athletes and founders have to demonstrate extreme resilience to overcome the challenges on the path to success. 📚 In my hundreds of conversations with the best athletes and founders in the past year I've also noticed a common trait: they are all optimists with a growth mindset. We previewed our new brand film which encapsulates this this week at the sequel launch event... I look forward to sharing it publicly soon. Thank you to the athletes, founders, VCs, angels and partners who joined us at the event this week 🙏

I love this comparison, Alex Macdonald! Both fields really push you to your limits and beyond. It's all about bouncing back stronger every time you hit a wall. I can't wait to see the brand film and get even more inspired!
