Founder's Journey: What I Wish I Knew When Starting a Company

What does it really take to build a company from the ground up? Join us at Oxford Edge for an honest and engaging panel discussion featuring three founders at the forefront of innovation — each with hard-earned lessons from launching and scaling AI-driven, tech-enabled ventures. 

You’ll hear from: Sam Carter, CEO of Fospha, helping DTC brands unlock growth by accurately measuring cross-channel marketing performance. 

Adam Mendel, Advisor at 7Gen, shaping the future of intelligent mobility through AI and automation, following the acquisition of his company, EnergizedAI. 

Alexander Finlayson, CEO of Nye , building the infrastructure for personalised medicine with partners like Google and Roche, using AI to transform patient care .

They’ll reflect on the lessons they wish they’d known at the start — from early missteps and critical pivots to scaling high-impact ventures. 

Whether you're a student, founder, or part of the wider entrepreneurial ecosystem, this is a chance to learn from those building at the frontier of technology and business.
