🎉 2024: A Year of Transformation and Discovery 🎉

Francesco Miná

December 24, 2024

Entrepreneurship is a journey of unlearning—letting go of established norms and preconceived notions to embrace new ways of thinking, solving problems, and creating value. It’s about re-imagining what you thought was “normal standard” and striving to create something new. This year, my life took a sharp turn: since March, I’ve been writing my own story @ Innovative Human Touch. ✨

Words like “career” started to fade, replaced by one that now holds infinite weight—customer. Their challenges, needs, and ambitions became my compass, reshaping how I view success and purpose.

This journey was not without its challenges. To navigate this uncharted territory, I had to step out of my comfort zone and adapt at every turn:
– Diving into the intricacies of financials and startup models.
– Building and structuring my web portal, specialized marketing, and communication.
– Creating my personal AI Lab.
– Attending new courses and upskilling in different areas.

🔗Collaboration: The Cornerstone of 2024 🔗
🌟 I had the privilege of working with exceptional and talented individuals and organizations—students, educators, startups, competence centers, and industry leaders across diverse sectors like education, life sciences, sport, nautical, automotive, aerospace, energy, and more. Each interaction brought unique insights and opportunities to tackle challenges and co-create meaningful solutions.

✨ Key Lessons from 2024 ✨
Empathy and customer obsession: It’s not about understanding customers from a distance; it’s about living their challenges with them. Every day is different, every story unique.
– Structure meets creativity: Corporate life taught me the power of structure. Entrepreneurship revealed the magic of creativity. Together, they’ve given me the tools to craft something truly unique—my own script. As Walt Disney said, “We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we’re curious … and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” 🌱
– Self-discovery through building: Building a company is like uncovering hidden facets of yourself—it reveals strengths and challenges you never knew existed, pushing you to grow in unexpected ways.

If there’s one truth that’s crystal clear after this year, it’s this: GRIT is everything. Curiosity, creativity, perseverance, emotional intelligence, and critical thinking are the foundation of meaningful progress.

2024 reminded me that the future is not something we wait for. It’s something we shape—with courage, care, and a human touch.
As we close this chapter, I’m filled with gratitude and anticipation for what’s next.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with health, growth, and endless possibilities. Let’s shape the future together. 🌟
Here’s to a bright 2025! ✨
