Founders Bay Virtual Workshop: The Day 1 Advantage: A Founder’s Playbook for Competitive Readiness

​The moment you launch, the clock starts ticking. Startup founders are immediately thrust into a fierce battle for capital, top-tier talent, and early adopters.

​Historically, Market and Competitive Intelligence (CI) was treated as a luxury reserved for massive enterprises with deep pockets. But the business landscape has drastically changed. With markets evolving at breakneck speed, founders no longer have the luxury of treating competitive strategy as a "Phase 2" problem. If you rely solely on intuition and wait to understand your market, you’re already behind.

​The good news? You don't need a massive budget to outmaneuver the competition. Join Fouad Benyoub—founder of Shiva Strategies and Otin.ai—to learn how early-stage founders can build a lean, effective competitive engine from the ground up.

​About the Speaker:

​Fouad Benyoub is a globally recognized leader in market and competitive intelligence, the Founder & Chief Competitive Strategist of Shiva Strategies, and the Founder & CEO of Otin.ai. With 20 years of experience in business and product strategy, Fouad has successfully built and led intelligence programs for companies across seven global industries.
