The Netherlands is getting a better startup infrastructure, more and better investors, and more incubators & accelerators. Still, the innovation capacity lags behind Silicon Valley. The main reason is the difference in mindset and culture.
Says who? Well, Peter Ester (professor) and Arne Maas (entrepreneur) published a pioneering book about the Silicon Valley ecosystem: Silicon Valley: Planet Startup (2016). They will take you to Silicon Valley, the innovation capital of the world. Here, innovative startup entrepreneurship is embedded in a culture that advocates risk-taking, creativity, invention, disruption and sharing. Silicon Valley above all is a mindset, a belief in thinking beyond the here and now. It is about passion and ambition.
Today, Ester & Maas share their findings and experience in an interactive session. Aim is to provide the audience with tools and ideas how to initiate innovative entrepreneurship"
Arne Maas is an entrepreneur. Co-founder of Soundies, a foodtech startup which he started after having visited Silicon Valley several times. Background: PhD in psychology, worked for many top companies such as Unilever, Heineken, Philips. (Co-)author of four books about marketing & unconscious, social media and Silicon Valley. Speaker on these issues.
