How can I build the team of a startup studio?

Team is the most critical component for a venture builder organization. You need to hire people who have the right "studio mindset", who accept your vision and operating procedures and who can work on multiple startup initiatives in parallel.

Also here you can find some more hints about CEO selection for the portfolio companies:

How can I raise funds for a new startup studio?

As someone who is deeply involved with startup studios, here are a few hints.
1. First, calculate your optimal scale of operations. In our startup studio this was about 12-15 people core team + dedicated ceo-s for each startup experiment
2. Raise funds for the studio, for at least 12-18 months. Your options:
- use your own money
- do agency work
- get direct VC investment (hardest one, you will need traction)
- get corporate financing
3. Raise funds for your startups that are ready for it.

After our conversation call, I consider Attila a trusted expert in the startup studio field. Even after a short call, he was able to clarify questions of strategic importance regarding our venture builder. I recommend him as an expert who can guide you in growing your own startup studio.
