Panelist-Profile: Amy Hoy, designer, bootstrapper

Amy Hoy (bootstrapper, designer, founder) joins the panel of experts as queen of bootstrapping!
“Hi, I’m Amy. My Twitter bio is “interface radical.” I take boring old ho-hum software (like time tracking and tweet walls) and make it refreshing, shiny, and fun.”

“Create value, and charge for it” is one of her major views on founding and building companies. She writes about it beautifully on her blog: unicornfree.com. Among other things, she argues that working on your “monetization-strategies” is rather like admitting that your product does not really solve a problem worth solving…

Guiding Principles

Stuff to ask about

• Building to keep
• Building on direct income – ergo bootstrapping
• Development
• Design
• Life as a foreigner in Vienna

So…

Meet her and get to know her views and experiences at STARTup Live Vienna #3.
