概要

 How do you go from zero to 20,000 founders, investors & builders in just 2 years — without raising a cent? In this episode of Startup Scaleup People, we speak with Vasily Alekseenko, founder of Rare Founders — one of London’s largest and most consistent in-person startup and investor communities.From Christmas parties with 1,500+ people to demo days where 40+ startups raised funds, Vasily shares how he scaled by creating real value, staying consistent, saying no to distractions, and building deep partnerships that actually work.He also opens up about the challenge of moving from investment banking into entrepreneurship, the broken investor-founder dynamic, building a tech platform to surface overlooked founders, and why failure is the best teacher.Hosted by Mario RivasReal stories from startup, scaleup & enterprise leaders. From boardrooms to founder garages — we bring you insights on growth, leadership, funding, exits, and everything in between.
