Timestamps: 6:02 - Saying goodbye to Big Pharma 18:26 - Fulfilling your parents' expectations 47:53 - Stepping down from the CEO role 58:56 - Joining Dezentrum 1:05:18 - A do tank, not a think tank About Malik El Bay Malik El Bay is the co-founder of the household management app Flatastic and a partner at Dezentrum, a think-tank concocting positive scenarios of the future. His background is in interdisciplinary natural sciences and he has previously worked for Fit Analytics and Modum. He also co-founded Yeppt, an app which aimed to be a mix of Facebook events, Whatsapp and Doodle, and which participated in the Axel Springer Plug and Play Accelerator. After graduating from ETH, Malik discovered lab work and the world of Big Pharma weren't what he was most suited for. This identity crisis led him to send out a great deal of job applications, namely to Fit Analytics, where he eventually had his first startup experience. Here he was able to run experiments dealing with data about people and products. By then, he was sharing an apartment with a group of entrepreneurs who encouraged him to become one himself, so he did — but after a failed project, he felt he needed to go back to ETH to study some more. At this time Malik also participated in the ETH Entrepreneur Club. Fresh out of university once again, he co-founded the social network Yeppt, and even managed to get in the Axel Springer Accelerator. Looking back, Malik can pinpoint a few mistakes: - They received great feedback because they asked the wrong questions. - Accelerators serve as social proof and as a stage, which they thought would easily permit them to achieve viral growth. For this reason, they didn't prioritize fundraising. - They lost sight of what their ultimate company vision was. After dedicating his time to Flatastic (2014/present) and Modum (2016/2020), Malik joined the think-tank Dezentrum, after having originally received a one-pager from them for feedback and remained in contact. Dezentrum calls themselves a "do-tank" because, more than write papers (which they don't enjoy doing all that much), they are able to build in-house prototypes based on their ideas. They're financed by private companies, academic institutions and foundations. They mainly discuss Universal Basic Income, remote work and decentralized companies. Malik is of the opinion that UBI should be a top societal priority, since poverty sincerely hinders decision-making and prevents human flourishing. However, he also thinks that citizens need to take into account that a UBI will have to be payed for by everyone, though it may not necessarily be enjoyed by everyone. Regarding this topic, as with all other discussions of the future, Malik is of the belief that it's up to us to avoid dystopian scenarios.

Bastian Krautwald ist Gründer von deineStudienfinanzierung, einer digitalen Plattform für Studierende, die eine Finanzierung für ihr Studium suchen. Hierbei werden von BAföG bis hin zum KfW Kredit verschiedene individuelle Möglichkeiten online geboten. Begonnen hat Bastians Reise mit einem dualen Studium bei der Investitionsbank Berlin. Hierbei hatte er Einblicke vom Privatkundengeschäft bis zum Venture Arm erhalten, wodurch er die Idee für ein eigenes Startup entwickelt hat. Kurz gesagt entstand so ein digitaler Bank Berater. Was es damit genau auf sich hat erfahrt ihr in dieser Episode. Danach ging es in den Axel Springer Plug & Play Accelerator. Hier erzählt Bastian über typische Fehler und was er daraus gelernt hat. Die wichtigste Erkenntnis: Welches Kundenproblem wird von unserem Produkt gelöst? Umfragen bei Studierenden machten deutlich, dass die Finanzierung des Studiums schwierig und aufwändig ist. Und so entstand aus etwas Großem und Allgemeinen ein spezifisches Produkt. Auch erzählt Bastian von seiner Zeit bei der Code University und seiner Motivation technische Expertise zu sammeln. Ebenfalls Thema: Was waren die schönsten Kundenmomente? Und welche Herausforderungen mussten bewältigt werden?

Über das Gründen Bastian Krautwald, Gründer von deineStudienfinanzierung und ehemaliges Mitglied des Axel Springer Plug & Play Acceleratorprogramms, erzählt von den Höhen und Tiefen in Gründungsprozessen und warum es manchmal wichtig sein kann, sich von den eigenen Ideen zu trennen. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gutes-gruenden/message

Zusammen haben sie ‘99 alando.de an Ebay verkauft. Wir drei kennen uns schon lange, hatten aber nie die Gelegenheiten so offen und in der Tiefe über seine Erfahrungen aus der Ebay Aufbau-Zeit und der Arbeit mit einem amerikanischen Leadership Team zu sprechen. “Situational Leadership - eigentlich total verboten, aber echt hilfreich.” Thema war aber auch die Phase in der er sich auf die Familie konzentriert hat, sein schwerer Unfall und sein Umgang damit. Wie er Axel Springer Plug & Play leitet, den Inkubator mit dem er über 100 Firmen mit angeschoben hat und seinen “Work Life Blend”, wie er es nennt, im Griff behält, verrät er im Podcast.

Levin Keller is known to many in Berlin as the man who warned everyone about the dark scenario where buying Bitcoins in Europe would be subject to VAT. As with the VAT issue, Levin was also concerned with the complexity of filing tax returns. For merchants and companies dealing in Bitcoin, keeping track of gains and losses makes proper accounting a messy ordeal. His startup, Coyno, hopes to solve that by providing standalone, read-only bookkeeping for your existing wallets. Coyno allows you to import the public seed from your HD wallet and keeps track of transactions. The service, currently in beta, reads your wallets’ public addresses and stores bookkeeping information whenever a transaction occurs. By recording the exchange rate at the time of transaction, Coyno can generate reports of taxable events, allowing users to more easily file their taxes. By allowing Coyno to read all your wallets, it’s able to differentiate incoming and outgoing transaction from funds being moved within your organization, a feature lacking from other reporting tools. Levin also talks about his journey of being incubated at the Axel Springer Plug and Play Accelerator in Berlin. He also weighs in on some of the challenges of building a Bitcoin startup and attracting investors in Europe.
