Our very own Ciaran from Medtribe (Techstars ‘23) in the latest episode of Techstars Founder Features. MedTribe is creating the professional network for medical experts, addressing the critical need for career progression within healthcare. Less than 10% of medical professionals have a LinkedIn account, and even less are active users. Thanks to their education platform, MedTribe bring together healthcare professionals from across the globe, and open them to new opportunities. For more info, get in touch with the MedTribe team: Ciaran Megoran, Nic Megoran & Kunal Madhav.
What problem are you solving? 🎙️ Medtribe (Techstars ‘23) Founder Ciaran Megoran discusses his journey from ER physician to startup founder in the latest episode of Techstars Founder Features. Here are the key takeaways: 1️⃣ The healthcare industry has a problem with global inequity: Between career opportunities and accessibility to the latest medical knowledge and technology, the global healthcare system is deeply stratified. MedTribe aims to tackle this problem by unifying and developing a global, digital healthcare community. 2️⃣ Founders need to prioritize their mental health: If the founder is struggling, then the company is struggling. Ciaran speaks on how entrepreneurship is sometimes even more stressful than emergency medicine, so founders need to find ways to make their mental health a priority. 3️⃣ Big problems need even bigger solutions: To deal with the massive problems plaguing the healthcare industry, MedTribe needed help to scale quickly. Through the Techstars London accelerator program, MedTribe was able to quickly and efficiently scale to meet the needs of the problem they are trying to solve. 👉 Listen here: http://tsta.rs/SPQp50Qe9BI Techstars London #founder #entrepreneurship #startup #investing #medtech #healthcare #techstars

Advised 250+ startups/scaleups on growth - profitably! Shaping the strategy, then hiring the team
It was great to run a Growth & Company workshop this morning with Techstars on how to hire for growth and avoid the common 5 hiring pitfalls.... Here are the 5 takeaways: 🖐 Hands on vs strategic - Avoid hiring people unable or unwilling to be hands on when required - Use fractionals, freelancers and advisors to bridge the gap, and be clear on expectations with candidates (team, budget, hiring) 💔 Case of the ex - Ex Google, ex Meta, ex successful competitor is a poor proxy for a candidate's ability and fit - Hiring the 5,231st employee at Uber isn't going to be the right person for your 20 person transportation startup. Look beyond the brand name to the skills required 🔨 Skill not knowledge - Industry knowledge is quick to gain, quick to become redundant, and less transferable than you think. Fintech experience in payments doesn't mean you understand the pensions market - Focus on hiring smart, driven and curious people, and augment them with veteran advisors/investors who have real industry clout 🚀 Hiring for now not IPO - The skills required of your growth leaders change rapidly as you scale - Hire people to get you to the next stage not IPO. Some will thrive at the next stage too, but most won't and that's ok 👩👦 Avoiding mini-mes - "I want to hire me but like 3 years ago" - Diversity of thought is critical to ensure you tackle problems from multiple angles. People who think like you will interview well, so set clear criteria to challenge your own biases What other hiring tips/mistakes would you add? Thanks to Mathilda Bosch and Samer Ullah for organising. #hiring #growthmarketing
