Building an entrepreneurial venture is a challenge underestimated by most founders.
During periods of stability within a given industry, founders face the normal stresses
that come from building a startup: a lack of resources, having to serve in multiple
functional roles, powerful customers, unclear business model, loneliness, stress to
personal finances, and more. During periods of substantial upheaval, as the oil and
gas industry is facing today, the challenges – and the rewards – can be even greater.
This lecture will equip attendees with a thorough understanding of how to build a
successful entrepreneurial venture during this time of energy transition. Core
universal concepts applicable to creating a successful startup will be presented,
while industry-specific trends will be explored to highlight areas that are ripe for
innovation. At the end of the lecture, attendees should have a grounding in how to
approach building a successful startup during this period of intense transition in the
oilfield.
