FalconX Pulse
Q1 APRIL 2022
Welcome to our First of many newsletters for the year 2022 to keep you updated on recent developments in the FalconX ecosystem.

CEOs Note on Exceeding Potential!
Entrepreneurs often feel challenged in situations that appear to be beyond their abilities to overcome, or so they feel. More than a high from a big round raised or a deal closed, the highs felt when one blows past one's own expectation has a significant and long lasting impact on confidence. One starts to make a habit of it. Obviously this cannot be done without help. This is where choosing the right mentor is critical. Seasoned mentors are keen observers and listeners who know when to step in with advice. They have a knack of tuning up strengths and dialing down visible weaknesses in the right sequence and with practice one starts to experience outcomes outpacing expectations. Good luck.
Greenko Group
FalconX is thrilled to partner with India based GreenKo Ventures Limited Group to promote innovation through collaboration with external talents. A recent Energy Intelligence report listed them in the top 3 green energy utility companies globally. Greenko’s mission is “building, owning & operating high-quality renewable energy assets by leveraging leading edge technologies for a stable and inclusive future”. This strategic partnership will help Greenko discover new technologies and trends that allow them to boost the development of new business models and products.
