"The #goal is not to avoid mistakes, but to #learn from them and move forward. Making #mistakes is okay—it’s part of the #process." This was a key #takeaway from the exclusive session with Riccardo Zacconi, Co-Founder & former CEO of King—the company behind #CandyCrush — who joined #INNOVIT Cohort 11 to discuss the future of #AI in #Gaming, #Metaverse, #AR & #VR. Having built and led a company that changed the gaming industry, Riccardo shared his perspective on embracing #uncertainty, making bold decisions, and staying resilient. His message resonates far beyond gaming — it’s a mindset that every #entrepreneur can apply. By connecting with global #leaders like Riccardo, our #founders gain industry insights and the perspective needed to embrace #failure as a stepping stone to #success. What’s a lesson you’ve learned from failure? #startups #innovation
