What's most frustrating and rewarding about entrepreneurship/innovation?

The most rewarding is the morning, when you wake up and you whistle on your way to your incubator with ideas flourishing.

The most frustrating is the evening when you go to bed and realize how much is yet to be accomplished and how hard and long is going to be the road.

What's the No. 1 mistake entrepreneurs/innovators make?

New ideas take time to be adopted.

New entrepreneurs are not prudent enough when they build their first Business Plans.

What are the top three lessons you've learned as an entrepreneur?

- Trust your instincts but listen to the others when they send you signals about your natural instinct.

- Build your BP and divide your revenues by 10 and check if the business is still sustainable.

- "There are no failures, just people giving up" - Albert Einstein.
