⚽ What do World Cup-winning teams and globally funded startups have in common?
Investors don't invest in the team that performs best today. They invest in the team most likely to keep winning tomorrow.
In this session, Eugenia di Marco, Lawyer & Founder of Sisu, will explore the parallels between elite sports teams and high-growth startups, uncovering the factors that separate promising companies from those that successfully scale on a global stage.
We'll cover:
🏆 The Myth of TalentWhy a great idea alone is rarely enough to build a successful company.
🎯 What Investors Actually Look ForBeyond the pitch deck: team dynamics, governance, execution, and long-term potential.
🚧 The Mistakes That Prevent Startups from Playing GloballyFrom intellectual property and founder agreements to contracts, compliance, and organizational structure.
🚀 What Successful Startups Have in CommonThe disciplines that consistently show up in companies that attract capital and scale internationally: adaptability, speed, focus, and execution.
Whether you're raising capital, preparing for growth, or building for the long term, this conversation will provide practical insights into what separates companies that compete from those that win.
🤝 We're also excited to welcome the London School of Economics Florida as a community partner for this special gathering!
