In Focus

Tech industry has always been attractive to me:

Creativity of coming up with an idea
Innovation of doing something has never done before or improving to leave no trace of the original code
Intelligence at its best for figuring out complex mathematical problems behind all technical creations
Science of things working together
Deal Making - a lot of that in business development, when finding customers for your creation and pitching to VCs
Risk and Adventure are strictly personal pursuits to satisfy my hunger for constant excitement, creating a challenge, a spike when life gets too plateau

All of the above makes me read, learn, research about tech industry. Multiple trips to San Francisco - best place to be for a risk taker techie - meeting friends and hanging out at tech parties and conferences.

Business development for an existing start up, partnering in on a venture is in focus for me.

Side focus - real estate investments. Cannot help getting attracted to real deal making and getting paid well. While looking to undertake a tech venture project, that will deprive me of sleep, make me antisocial, super focused and work-life imbalanced.

This post is a kick off of blogging and the only post about what is in focus for me. Future posts, I will keep my friends and clients posted on new ventures/deals that happened, share my resources and learning.

Need help with business development? Looking for a partner?

Trusting you,

Olya
