2025's biggest shift: non-technical founders are winning.
Small teams armed with AI tools (Cursor, Replit, Lovable) are outperforming big organizations.

The advantage isn't tech anymore—it's speed and customer insight.
Your turn to build.
Design partners are something that becomes a really strong part of our validation process. How do you all utilise them for your products?
Well done! How much does it cost?
Wait till they have to pay the bills ;)
Happy to be a part of it, building my startup studio as we speak!
Always the way, kids love to give us all their illnesses!
Not a bad background there!
Where abouts in Madrid are you? My colleague is in the process of moving there and looking for likeminded people to cowork with.
In most scenarios no development is done whatsoever until Validation 2 stage in which case a lot of ideas will have already been knocked on the head.
As a part of our studio, we aim to be able to validate ideas insanely fast. We have a five stage procedure that allows us to take ideas and understand their viability very quick.
These are as follows:
1 - Idea Lab
2 - The Feels Test
3 - Let's Get Deeper
4 - Validation 1
5 - Validation 2
Whilst I agree on the future, SEO will still be here for a long time. Potentially shifting more to in product SEO

Mainly going to use this Bluesky account to talk about building my venture studio Elysium Studios

The main problem with most who try and get meh is that they don’t know their icp well, their messaging is straight up wrong and they don’t know how to target well on the different platforms. Spray and pray doesn’t work anymore. Also boost doesn’t count as paid ads
Is this club la Santa? We visit Lanzarote with our 4 children relatively often! Super intrigued to how you find business life living out there
