Amos Schwartzfarb — Accelerating Tech Startups, the Reality of Building a Business, and Unspoken Candidate Characteristics

With me (your host Oz Rashid) on this episode is Amos Schwartzfarb, Managing Director at Techstars — a mentorship-driven capital accelerator — to discuss entrepreneurship, investing and, of course, hiring.

Amos chats about the criteria for assistance from Techstars and offers interesting tidbits from the book he co-wrote, “Levers.” He also talks about the importance of intellectual curiosity and a growth mindset in candidates, and why entrepreneurs should surround themselves with people who have the ability to provide different perspectives.

We discuss the reality of starting a business, what it takes and how to persevere during hard times. And Amos shares what it was like to co-author a book, and the intention behind it.

Man, I really appreciate all the raw insight from this interview.
