Today is the last episode of the year, and so we’re celebrating by doing something a little different. Rather than have a single guest on, we invited 11 senior On Deck employees to answer a single question: What trend do you expect to change, emerge, or accelerate in 2022?
To help them answer honestly, we were very clear that these aren’t necessarily predictions. Instead, my colleagues were instructed to think about patterns they’ve noticed this past year and project how they might shift or continue in 2022.
Next year, we’ll revisit this analysis and ask our colleagues where they were right, where they were wrong, and why.
Here are the guests:
First up is Andreas Klinger- On Deck’s CTO and a seed investor on the side. Andreas is based in Berlin. You can find him on Twitter @andreasklinger
Minn Kim is a partner at ODX based in San Francisco. ODX is On Deck’s community-backed fund and accelerator program. In her role, Minn’s job is to help the best founders in the world by removing obstacles, opening doors, and creating customized programming for each startup in the program. She’s had some exposure to some incredible companies this year through her amazing work at On Deck. You can find her on twitter @minney_cat

We welcome back Atlanta-based KP to the show after he joined us in October to chat about building in public.
