Aakash Dave of Spotmi - leverage facial recognition to improve social media relationships
Description
Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Aakash Dave the founder of Spotmi. Spotmi is a social media platform that leverages facial recognition to improve relationships and connections.
Aakash has been interested in entrepreneurship since he was an 8-year old programmer and watching his father at Board meetings.
He is a rare startup founder in that he has experience as a technical founder (his education is in computer science) and business experience through financial analysis and obtaining an MBA.
Like most entrepreneurs, Aakash has experimented with a few businesses. His current endeavor, Spotmi, leverages facial recognition and machine learning to enable deeper interactions inside a proprietary social media network.
Some of the insights Aakash shared includes the importance of being sales focused as a founder, “It all comes down to sales”, and how obtaining funding from investors is largely about leveraging your network.
