Tooraj will share lessons learned from his startup journey in addition to advice on how to drive success in the app-centered economy.

Startup founders face numerous challenges on their entrepreneurial journey. One significant pain point is the high cost and time investment required for app development.

Tooraj Helmi is the founder and CEO of APSY, a startup that harnesses the speed and accuracy of AI to generate mobile and web apps at a fraction of the cost and time. The platform is the first truly no-code site that allows a customer to describe an App and watch for a powerful solution to be generated on the other end.

For small businesses including Chime Beauty, Drives and Detours, and more – APSY has been a much-awaited answer to building networks, community, and the foundation for successful App-centered businesses.

In his Founders Network webinar on July 6, Tooraj will share lessons learned from his startup journey in addition to advice on how to drive success in the app-centered economy.

  • How to develop an AI-focused startup
  • How to find your product-market fit
  • How to continuously improve your AI through customer pilots
  • How to create plans to establish and grow a customer base

Testimonials

If you don't have a cohort group in something like Founders Network that you can develop long-term relationships with and discuss the same topics that come up with people that you already know, you're probably missing out on something very important.

David Plonsky

The number one advantage is the law of compound interest. The longer you stay in a very high-quality network the strong and more authentic relationships you build.

Chaitanya Vaidya

We know each other's business and we know each other's struggles. Having a personal relationship with other founders that is completely confidential and completely authentic gives you a lot of great advice.

Doug Lessing

FN manages my network for me by connecting me with other founders in my specific industry sector. I've been able to explore business development opportunities, partnerships, etc.

Becky Splitt

We just saw the first Mexican unicorn come to life this same week which is a fantastic idea. Being part of the Founders Network makes a lot of sense. We see that the Mexico City chapter is growing substantially.

Max Linares

There's a lot of great stuff going on even now in San Francisco. I've found Founders Network has been a great resource for me and for all of the founders I know during these tough times.

Jarie Bolander

It allowed me to meet people who had done this before that had the experience. I was able to explain an issue very briefly and they were able to give me a very detailed response on how they addressed it.

Terence Finn

I've used the platform to discover advice, connections, resources, discounts, on important services, connections to investors, and practice on how to pitch. The kind of conversations you can't get anywhere else on youtube or google searches.

Alexandra Greenhill

I see Founders Network as one of those necessary resources in the Chicagoland area.

Jason Jacobsohn

The Black Founders initiative allows me to shape this program where we can inspire, engage, and support Black Founders.
