Biro Florin

As a passionate Angel Investor, Serial Entrepreneur, and now a Podcaster, I am wholeheartedly dedicated to the world of startups and founders. Having spent over a decade immersed in the startup ecosystem, I've journeyed through a spectrum of experiences - from numerous failed ventures to building a successful business, Jexo, that was recently acquired.

Reflecting on my journey, I see myself as a misfit - a founder who faced countless setbacks and bouts of self-doubt before finally finding my path. This 'misfit' identity, coupled with my deep-rooted passion for helping others, inspired me to establish Misfit Founders. This initiative is an authentic and supportive community designed to empower founders and ease the feelings of 'out-of-place' syndrome common among many entrepreneurs.

In our community, we have a podcast that facilitates open, genuine discussions about the struggles and successes of entrepreneurship. As a host, I have the privilege of contributing my insights alongside those of my guests. Each conversation is unscripted and real, focusing on raw experiences rather than polished narratives. 👉 https://mf.show

Further, Misfit Founders extends beyond the podcast, encapsulating a vibrant WhatsApp community. This free-to-join group serves as a haven for founders, a space where they can share ideas, seek advice, and find support in a network of like-minded individuals. 👉 https://nas.io/misfits

I invite you to become part of this supportive community, and together, let's change the narrative around failure and success in entrepreneurship.
