tion. Disappointed to find that no one can read”.In his last chapter, however, Guy claims that there is also an obligation for entrepreneurs. He calls it “The Art of being a Mensch” and he argues that “right is right and wrong is wrong”. He calls entrepreneurs to simply follow a few rules: help people who cannot re-ciprocate, and don’t care if the recipient is poor or powerless, help without the expectation of return and help many people. Do what’s right because a Mensch does not the easy thing, the expedient thing, the money-saving thing, the I-can-get-away-with-it thing. And repay society because you are blessed. These blessings come with the obligation to repay society because you owe to society.
A great team that do most things right are the founders of Frontify. They found a service that answers simple questions, they found their sweet spot at the interface of expertise, passion and opportunity, they found soul ma-tes and they made meaning.Let this team inspire you tonight with their keynote and become one of the next success cases aiming to become a Mensch!
I wish you plenty of vision, persever-ance and luck!

Many years ago I watched an inspiring video by Guy Kawa-saki - “the Art of Pit-ching”. And most of the Do’s and Don’ts he brought up are still true and fun. I loved the way Guy was gi-
ving his message: concise, clear, at eye level with the entrepreneur’s world and with plenty of humor. This is why for this issue of Startup Campus Connect I won’t write about trends and what to look out for, but borrow from Guy’s inspiring new book “The ART of the START 2.0”.
It’s a great read about Conception, Ac-tivation and Proliferation when you are in the process of learning and in parallel executing the art of building a startup. Guy gives a great introduction for Star-ting Up and helps you with incredibly practical hints for Launching, Leading, Bootstrapping, Fund-raising and - of course - Pitching. He emphasises that these are the key activities for the ac-tivation of a startup and you get price-less advice on so many little things and questions that come up again and again in early stage ventures. In chapter three, he unveils the secrets of proliferation: Building a Team, Evangelizing, Soci-alizing, Rainmaking, Partnering, and Enduring. He guides your way in a fun and easy manner, so that you are pre-pared to not be surprised by innovation, unlike J. Gutenberg, who on October 3, 1493, reported “Finally finished inven-
