Four points of advice from an investor
I recently listened to a short video entitled, “Advice from an investor managing a $30B FundㅣAIM Congress, Dawood Al Shezawi” on the EO YouTube channel.
These are the four points I took away from it. They probably seem fairly obvious, but may serve as useful reminders.
1. Do deep research about the market and potential VC’s/partners.
2. Consider whether you want to be a local or global startup.
3. Understand the law, legislations, and international standards.
4. Network with the right people.

StratupAI Generated Idea: Mental Health Marketplace Platform
“Mental health support accessibility is a common frustration among individuals today. Many people struggle to find appropriate mental health resources or professionals who suit their needs, leading to delays in receiving care or even getting discouraged from seeking help. A startup idea could be a mental health marketplace platform that connects individuals with licensed therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals. This platform could offer a wide range of specialists, online therapy sessions, affordable pricing options, and secure messaging for ongoing support. The marketplace could also provide verified reviews and ratings to help users make informed decisions.”
