@said_aitmbarek That seems to have been the major accomplishment.

Uma Venugopal · Answer

Thought a "person" would make a great co-fo. That was an idea. Didn't work out. But I'm happy flying solo because I've built a network of great founders around me that I don't even think of not having a cofo.

Hidayt Rahman · Answer

@said_aitmbarek Yes, all of them because I am still learning and got lot of experience to handle thing smoothly.

Hidayt Rahman · Answer

@uma_venugopal Yes, this is what we learn from every failure

Said Aitmbarek · Answer

@hidaytrahman Indeed my friend, indeed! Any good idea that didn't work out on your side?

Hidayt Rahman · Answer

@kkumarkg Yes, that is generally the main problem for most of us. As creators, we must continuously learn from our errors.
