Being an entrepreneur is a calling, not a brag
Our first birthday, more than a thousand matches between strangers, a dinner among partners. And two things I want to say to anyone building a company.

Oh my dear founder…
More than a thousand matches between people who didn't know each other, in a single year. Well, not bad. We celebrated the first birthday of play2match with a dinner among partners: tigelle, tagliatelle, cold cuts and other greasy stuff, because in Bolo “az magna acsè” (that's just how we eat here).
Between forkfuls we talked about the future, about our relationship, about how to stay real. What we said to each other stays there. But there are two thoughts I want to share.
One: it's not a brag
Being an entrepreneur isn't something to brag about. People who flaunt it as a status symbol are ridiculous. Being an entrepreneur is a belief and a calling: you choose it because you can't do otherwise, not to put it in your bio.
Two: to people you will always sell
Whether you do B2B, B2C, SaaS, AI or any other acronym, in the end you'll always sell to people and always talk to people. So let's remember to be human, in our own way.
For us it's also the product: helping people meet in a healthy, real way, with sport in the middle. If you feel like seeing what it's like, come and play.
