Unhandled Exceptions: Preview
July 8, 2011 03:27 pm
After several weeks of silence and a bit of
teasing through the Facebook page, Tech Rumble is happy to announce the
start of a brand new weekly web video series that aims to give exposure to
entrepreneurs, technopreneurs and people who are just doing things differently
in life. The series will be called Unhandled Exceptions and to find out what
the show is all about, check out the video.
The vision of Unhandled Exceptions can be divided into three areas.
1) Give exposure to entrepreneurs, technopreneurs, people who are doing things
different in life and essentially people with a story to share
2) In the case of companies and individuals who are attempting to branch out
into brand new ventures, our aim is to ask questions which will test them to
find if they can walk the talk. This isn’t to put anyone down, it simply is
another way of giving exposure to the people being interviewed by asking them
questions that potential users and investors might ask. If the individuals can’t
answer the questions it’s not a bad thing. It’s simply a learning experience.
And if they answer them well, our hope is that someday potential investors will
be watching the show and will be interested in investing in the companies that
prove they can walk the talk.
3) Bring in people who have been successful in their endeavours to share their
story so that those watching may be inspired to try out new things themselves.
Also, something to note is that while the shows are not live, the interviews
are unscripted. That means that the interviewees hear the questions for the
first time only when they are being interviewed on set.
How do I get on the show?
The first step is to throw away fear and self doubt. If you have a dream that
you want to follow then at some point you have to step up to the challenges you
will face and one of the challenges will be talking to people about it and
having everything you thought was wonderful being questioned over and over
again. But like I say in the video, it’s only those who can say “no I don’t
know the answer to everything but when the time comes I’m going to find out”
who end up being the exceptions.
