In September, we celebrated a significant milestone at Chapter3 – our second birthday! It’s hard to believe that two years have already flown by since I embarked on this exciting journey of helping startups and series A businesses thrive in the dynamic world of technology and growth.
We gathered with friends, clients, and partners at our favorite neighborhood spot, the Oxford Taproom, to share some heartfelt moments, tasty brews, and reflections on the many chapters we’ve written together over the past two (plus!) years throughout Chapter3’s journey.
A huge thank you to everyone who has been part of our story. Whether you’ve been a client, a collaborator, or simply a supporter, your trust and encouragement have fuelled Chapter3’s mission and success. Thanks for joining the party!
A special shoutout to Teymour Adham for capturing our celebrations on camera. Cheers to another year of growth, collaboration, and community! On to the next chapter!
Even though I tried, with mixed success, to resist the urge to take on too much or jump into a full-time role – I inevitably did find myself still very much ‘working’. This came in the form of meeting with incredibly interesting companies, reconnecting with wildly talented professionals, and having lots of conversations with friends, mentors, and professionals I admire. It is largely because of these wonderful folks that I realized my next step was painfully obvious… because I was already doing it.
The change in direction of moving from other people’s ventures to my own is literally and metaphorically my third chapter.
In typical “me” fashion, I made this realization well after I had already subconsciously made the decision to go out on my own – and after I was already building a great client base. So naturally, I figured it was probably pertinent to actually tell people about it!
Welcome to my new chapter. As with all chapters prior, I have no doubt this will be full of twists and turns and ups and downs; but this time the narration is in first person.
Cheers!
