“If you just think about getting ‘big’ just to get ‘big’ then you’ve lost the battle,” says Mohit Sharma, CEO and Co-Founder of VBreathe. “You start taking shortcuts and stuff things up. You’ve got to have the right intention and let people see your idea and passion and product."

Tune in today to tap into Mohit’s advice on what he’s learned the hard way about investors; how to know whether the advice people want to give you is legit; and why you’ll never hear him whinging. What you won’t hear from him though, is what industry trends excite him. “I don’t like trends,” he said, “I like people who break trends.”

Join The Studio each week as we showcase Australia’s successful tech founders and the business heads who know how to startup and scaleup globally. It’s a chance to refresh and recharge over a 30 minute lunch break and connect with people like you.

Every Tuesday @midday are Founders’ Stories: where we get to chat with those who’ve done ‘the hard yards’ and come out the other side.

Every Thursday @midday is our Business Series: where we pick the brains of scaleup experts on how to keep the cash flowing and also showcase startups making a social impact.
