  • 23: How to Become an AI entrepreneur? l JJ's journey from Google, to McKinsey, to AI Entrepreneurship
    2025/01/15

    Hi everyone - in this episode, I'm SUPER excited to plunge into the (hot!) topic of AI Entrepreneurship with my guest JJ.


    In my humble opinion, JJ's career path is MEGA exciting. JJ started his career at Google 🤩, went to McKinsey🧠 where he got exposure to digital transformation and deep learning projects. JJ then went deeper into AI space, joining an AI consultancy 🤖 where - at 25! - he was the head of the division in charge of AI strategy.


    After that - in this "now or never" moment that I have heard from many entrepreneurs whom I have interviewed - JJ decided to become an entrepreneur and went to Entrepreneur First where he launched, at first, a company delivering real time biometric feedback for fitness applications and then - a company that JJ is running now - a copilot for private equity.


    Listen to the interview for tonnes of AI and career insights:

    - How JJ decided to leave a corporate path - and what he has learned about employability of ex-founders

    - Whether one can build an AI business without technical background

    - What lessons JJ has learned running an AI business

    - And - of course - how AI can impact careers going forward


    Tune in, enjoy, be shameless!



    P.S. I have just launched a newsletter where I will be analysing each interview, distilling key career tips & learnings, and sharing my personal career experiences. If you love chatting about careers - subscribe - and don't hesitate to respond and share your thoughts, would love to hear them! https://shamelesscareers.beehiiv.com/
