ABOUT OUR GUEST SPEAKER
Ash Maurya has been an entrepreneur for nearly three decades, and has been in search of a better, faster way for building successful products since 2010. His mantra is "Life’s too short to build something nobody wants."
Greatly inspired by the works on Customer Development and Lean Startup pioneered by Steve Blank and Eric Ries, he became very well-known in the global lean startup community and went on to create the highly popular one-page business modeling tool “Lean Canvas” and write two bestselling books that taught entrepreneurs how to implement the philosophies - “Running Lean: How to Iterate from Plan A to a plan that works” and “Scaling Lean”. He also founded LEANSTACK, which provides world-class tools, courses, and training that help early-stage entrepreneurs find repeatable and scalable business models.
Ash is praised for offering some of the best and most practical advice for entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs all over the world. Driven by the search for better and faster ways for building successful products, Ash has developed a systematic methodology for raising the odds of success built upon Lean Startup, Customer Development, and Bootstrapping techniques.
Ash is also a leading business blogger and his posts and advice have been featured in Inc. Magazine, Forbes, and Fortune.

About the organiser
Our Mission is to Find and Empower Neo’s
If you’ve not seen The Matrix, Neo’s are people who have a special ability and role to play in making the world a better place.
Specifically, The Startup Race aims to empower entrepreneurs to create a successful startup more quickly and easily wherever they are in the world.
To achieve this mission, The Startup Race motivates the world’s smartest serial entrepreneurs and startup founders to redefine the definitive path to startup success and then it shares this knowledge with normal entrepreneurs and startup founders around the world.
The Origin Story
The Startup Race was born in the autumn of 2015 as a result of a conversation between startup founders based in Edinburgh, Scotland who wanted to gamify the startup process to help themselves and others.
James Shoemark – CEO
This was because they believed that:
Problem #1 – 95% of Startups fail because Founders spend too much time overbuilding a ‘Solution’ nobody wants.
And
Problem #2 – 95% of Startups fail because too many Founders get investment based on their charisma and story-telling abilities rather than their ability to generate revenue from their customers.
Since then the team has grown to include:
Michael Clouser – Serial Entrepreneur
Dan Drummond
Our believers and advisors include:
Ian Ritchie – Serial Entrepreneur
Bruce Walker
