Description
Explore tells the stories behind the success of entrepreneurs and investors around the world.
Hi there👋, I'm Hugo Rauch, a financial analyst at Microsoft and the host of Explore. I've always been fascinated by startups, in 2022 I wrote a 100 pages paper on the startup economy. In 2023, I wanted to learn from experience and I started Explore.
I'm made myself the goal of supporting early-stage founders with theoretical and practical learnings.
