45 Time Room Name: Core Conversation Tuesday, July 21 How to Survive Exponential Growth Decisions you make when you are small will echo for years to come. The paradigms, choices, and people you bring onto your startup should be consciously designed to not only serve the needs of the day, but to ensure that your organization will survive scaling up. But how do you know the which decisions will have short and long term effects on both your business and culture? Along with company growth comes growing pains, but there are ways to minimize falling into the usual scaling up traps. We have been helping startups become end-ups for the last seven years and have learned the most common hurdles and the best ways forward. We will use real case studies from companies like Uber, Nasty Gal, Google, and others to demonstrate con- crete actions and turning points to pay most attention to. Questions Answered: 1. How do you scale your business without destroying your culture or losing touch with your core customer base? 2. While your business begins to grow, how do you stay true to your values and and not start adopting your competitor's practices? 3. As your company scales up, how do you attract new employees without losing your current entrepreneurial talent?
