I love machines and robots. I've been building them since I was 8 years old. My whole life revolves around that love. I am proud of the Jellyfish, an energy harvesting machine that we are developing for ocean waves. Quote_down

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

I know how to build it, I have the design, I have the right team.I just want to BUILD it but lack of funds comes in the way.

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

Don't focus on the money.Build amazing products first. Money will just come.

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

1. It's all about the customer. Make them happy by being an amazing designer.
2. Don't focus on the profit per project. Always long term.
3. Quality is expected. Not a selling proposition.
