I was asked to do a 60 seconds video pitch of Erepublik today. Not easy and not particularly happy with the result but I think I cover the main points and gets the message across. Still clearly for once I should not have followed my rule of 0 preparation, 0 editing, 1 shot only and publish. You can find the video below as usual hit play at your own risks :o)

On another subject, there was a really good article in les Echos today about the French Economical mission in San Francisco who have a special program for start ups led by Aymeril Hoang. Its a great program that was very helpful to Erepublik and that I really recomend. I left a comment in the article
A company that I have been involved with in various forms since the beginning and that is very close to my heart: Livra.com was acquired today by IPSOS. Diego and Martin the co-founders and very good friends of mine have written a great post about this on the Livra blog
In this video post I go over some of the hurdles they had to overcome and how I became one of the (happy :o) shareholders of the company.
As usual unedited, no re-recording, no script so hit play at your own risk ;o)

I go in a bit more detail about how the round came about. Obvious common sense stuff for most so pass if you are an experienced entrepreneur.
Main shared experiences:
- It helps if you have been around for a while and know potential angels
- Usually a good sign for investors if your ex boss invests
- Networking and going to conferences is not a waste of time if you do it properly and are selective
- Easier if you have a great product.. ;o)
I’ll try to do another one soon about some of the problems we did have during the round.
As usual unedited video first time I record I publish click play at your own risk, this video stuff is not easy ;o)

Great video that Sergiu Biris pointed to me on Trilulilu. In my opinion a big part of an entrepreneur’s ultimate success depends on how he reacts to a sum of inevitable small failures.
