While the finalists of Ajujaht are striving for the win, we decided to gather our valuable Ajujaht alumni for a founder-to-founder alumni evening! 🔥 Active entrepreneurs who have emerged from the Ajujaht program over the past 16 years came together on a dark autumn evening in Tallinn to share their experiences and listen to fireside stories of other alumni, such as GoWorkaBit, UpSteam (now FleetFox), and FoodDocs moderated by Erik Ehasoo. Karen Burns talked about her success in scaling the technology company Fyma in the USA and shared the news about their successful investment round at a fireside chat with Harri Tallinn. 🚀 As a special program, Silicon Valley Blitzscaling Ventures founder Jeffrey D. Abbott took the stage, bringing his co-founder Chris Yeh via video to talk about the fast growth model Blitzscaling and the AI revolution. As a surprise guest, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman also appeared via video to discuss the new opportunities brought by the fresh AI revolution.⚡ To strengthen the bond between new and past alumni, the evening was filled with an exciting startup quiz, networking activities, and a delicious dinner.
