Startups, Entrepreneurship and Unfair Advantages | Hasan Kubba | TEDxSOAS

Entrepreneurship is on the rise, despite the fact that most startups fail. Is business and financial success based purely on hard work and merit? From Snapchat to Google, Richard Branson to Warren Buffett, what did they have that others didn't? Presenting his groundbreaking new model on success, author and entrepreneur Hasan Kubba uncovers the role of Unfair Advantages in our unequal world and describes how we can think about success, and ethically increase our own chances of having it. Author, entrepreneur and startup strategist, Hasan Kubba is a specialist in technology startups, growth marketing and fundraising. With his own London-based digital marketing business and startup investment experience, Hasan is particularly strong at breaking down complex business concepts into simple and effective strategies and tactics. He is passionate about the future of tech entrepreneurship, digital disruption and inequality, and is an in-demand startup mentor to early-stage entrepreneurs, a corporate workshop trainer, and international speaker. His new book 'The Unfair Advantage - The Truth About Startup Success' co-authored with startup legend and angel investor Ash Ali (the first marketing director of Just Eat which IPO’d for $2.44 billion) is out later in 2019. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

i fotgot how mmuch i love ted

[@Nephibis]

I have no idea what my unfair advantage is.

[@daviddeveloper44]

A fine talk by a young enterpreneur. For the future, credit people whose ideas you took when you use them on a platform such as TED. Example: "we overestimate what we can do in a year, and underestimate what we can do in a decade." As you do not, you show yourself to be a taker.

[@sura_jongs]

I'll be back..

[@zxne585]

You had to make it cringe towards the end LOL. I enjoyed the speech.

[@nsaieg2799]
