Rushing from product development to GTM without aligning on key marketing questions is a costly error: it ensures drag on all marketing investment. Take a brief moment to calibrate & boost speed + impact. Check out this article for more insights! 💡 https://t.co/ue7NmTeOSj

Founding teams often race from the building stage to go-to-market (GTM) without a brief intermission to calibrate their strategy. This is a costly error.

No matter how great your tech, it fails if your vision isn’t understood. This is the early-stage marketing paradox: success depends on solid marketing strategy, but high-quality guidance is too expensive. I unveiled a strategic blueprint to bridge the gap: https://t.co/xjxdW7Q53W

Loved the insightful questions during my talk @AcademyPolkadot @UCBerkeley. I spoke at the founders track, with attendees representing an impressive & diverse roster of projects at all layers of the stack. Vibrant energy in the room for web3 and the @polkadot ecosystem.

They earn money on the creativity of others by putting themselves between artist and consumer—artists don't have a direct consumer relationship. But w/ Web3 they can come together without intermediaries. -@ingoruebe @Kiltprotocol in conversation w/ @Ursulaok at Web3 Music Summit

Centralized control & ownership of data is a fundamental problem—but it’s the manipulation through algorithms that damages society. It’s all controlled by a few platforms & their commercial interests. Decentralization can reverse this. -Martina Larkin #ProjectLiberty w/ @Ursulaok

But if Facebook and Instagram transform into places where we go to be entertained, not where we connect with friends and family, it seems reasonable to predict that something else will take their place. Well said, @f_fatemi21 https://t.co/y6TVeAzNZ9

As legacy platforms move further away from their initial premise, what formats might take their place?

Bar none, my favorite conversation at #WebSummit today was with @Kiltprotocol's team in the @Polkadot booth: a growing list of decentralized identity services are built on the protocol. A must-visit tomorrow if you haven't yet been by . . . #polkadot_in_Lisbon
