Fireside Chat: Escaping the 9-5 (and building a 7-figure business) w/ Andrew Yeung & Matei Psatta #SFTechWeek
Lumos House Presents..
Fireside Chat: Escaping the 9-5 (and building a 7-figure business)
What is this event?
We are inviting 50 tech founders, investors, operators and creators to join us at the Lumos House for a conversation with Andrew Yeung (Founder, CEO at Fibe) and Matei Psatta (Co-founder, CMO at Blindspot)
Andrew was previously an operator at Google and Meta. Within a year of quitting his 9-5, he bootstrapped an events and media business into a 7-figure business. He is now an entrepreneur, investor, and community builder.
Matei was previously an operator at Leo Burnett, who quit and founded Blindspot, raising millions of dollars and scaling it to 7-figures (soon to be 8!) in a few years.
Both Andrew and Matei are ex-operators at companies like Google, Facebook, and Leo Burnett who hit 7-figures in their 1st year of being an entrepreneur.
We'll discuss:
- Tactics to balance both a side hustle and "main" hustle
- Things to avoid as a 1st time entrepreneur
- The power of building a personal brand
- Whether to bootstrap or raise capital
- How to make your own $100k
(Moderated by Jacob Solano)
