Ani shares her journey from startup founder to investor and offers valuable insights into what truly matters in angel investing: it’s not just about capital, but about network, knowledge, and hands-on support for founders.
In this conversation, we explore: - The rapid evolution of Armenia’s startup ecosystem - Why startups today are built global from day one - The key challenges founders face when scaling their companies - How artificial intelligence is creating new opportunities for smaller businesses - And why cross-border collaboration is essential for driving innovation
