Trust Center executive director Paul Cheek and managing director Bill Aulet discuss the robust frameworks laid out in their new books, Start Up Tactics and Disciplined Entrepreneurship (expanded edition), which have become essential reading for entrepreneurs aiming to navigate the complex startup ecosystem.

These frameworks are not just theoretical; they've been battle-tested by a wave of MIT startups that, by following these methods, have collectively raised over $1 billion in funding. Tune in to uncover the secrets behind their success and learn how these strategies can be applied to empower new ventures worldwide.

We sit down with Stack.Ai, a company that previously went through our Delta V Accelerator program. Stack.AI helps enterprise clients create custom AI models without prior AI experience. As they explain it, Stack Ai allows those closest to business pain points, solve problems with low code AI models.

Stack is also the platform currently used by the Martin Trust Center team for its own internal AI models.

This episode features co-founder Bernardo Aceituno and Pablo Omenaca.

Today’s episode features Doug Williams and Amu Killada

Doug and Amu are the minds behind a groundbreaking AI-powered system that allows teams to test their ideas against the Trust lCenter’s entrepreneurial frameworks.

This project has taken the principles of Disciplined Entrepreneurship and Start-Up Tactics to a whole new level. Leveraging tech designed by Delta V alumni Stack.AI, Amu and Doug have crafted a program that’s all about speed, efficiency, and sharp strategic thinking.

Imagine having the ability to rapidly test your entrepreneurial concepts, swiftly moving through the Trust Center model, and spending more time on what really matters: critical thinking and refining your ideas. That’s exactly what Doug and Amu’s program will offer to teams across the globe.

Right now, the program is in a beta test here at MIT. But we hope to bring it out into the world soon.
