    DescriptionIn episode 36 of the Most Awesome Founder Podcast, we present the second episode of the Awesome Founder Inspiration Sessions with Gerrit McGowan and Dries Faems.

    Continuing the format from previous episode, they discuss few hidden gems of thought-provoking information where each speaker would identify three items to discuss, one item that made them learn something, one item that made them think and one item that made them laugh.

    The episode is full of interesting ideas, current entrepreneurship trends and humour. So hopefully, you’ll enjoy listening to it as much as we did producing.

    Description
    A new study finds that fear of missing out motivates investors to give money early to startups with a disruptive vision. However, those backers are reluctant to invest too much in unproven ideas that might not take off. In other words, disruptive startups are more likely to raise money, but they receive smaller amounts than less-threatening ventures

    DescriptionStart-up companies often need to attract investment in order to grow. Sometimes they promise a ‘disruptive vision’: they say their product or service will fundamentally change an industry. But are disruptive visions effective? New research by Timo van Balen, a PhD candidate working in the Erasmus Centre for Innovation Management at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM), shows that a disruptive vision can indeed attract investors, but it also reduces the amount invested.
