Interview: Life in Bali as a Startup Founder and Mentor ๐Ÿ–

"The most essential part is to ask your users the right questions โ€” think twice or three or four times about the questions you're gonna ask." โ€“ Lyubov Dementyuk

This week's guest has been a co-founder at a few startups and most recently joined Founder Institute Bali as a mentor!

That's a lot! So we tried to get through the highlights and most valuable experiences along her path so far, including:
โš–๏ธ How to prioritize features for new products
๐Ÿ“ž Talking to users and making the most of these interviews
๐ŸŒ Life as a digital nomad in Bali + the startup scene there
๐Ÿš€ Her vision for building global + local Startup Ecosystems

"When you think from the perspective of partnership โ€” that you are working with the company, not in the company. I always pay attention to the idea. What do people do here, why โ€” do they believe in this? Are they ambitious?"

    Great perspective on combining entrepreneurship with lifestyle design.
    Building a business is challenging enough, so creating an environment that supports focus and long-term sustainability can be a real advantage.
    Curious what lessons from mentoring founders have had the biggest impact on your own journey.
