In this episode, we dig deep into how to get your venture off the ground, revealing who your customers really are, building a valuable platform, and overcoming imposting syndrome. Alexa Edström is interviewing special guest Varika Pinnam, co-founder of ThinkIDA - Ideate Act Decide, a web and mobile app to connect underrepresented, female founders to mentors, funding, and resources on a membership basis. Varika is currently a student at the University of Texas at Dallas, studying marketing and computer science while working on her venture outside of school. Her previous internship experience inspired her to jump into entrepreneurial waters after getting involved with an entrepreneurship event on campus.
