Sky Mitchell is the Founder and CEO of Basecamp Resorts (2017), a Western Canada–based mountain hospitality and wellness platform. Her vision is to create modern, experience-driven accommodations rooted in community, nature, and long-term demand. An avid skier, mountain biker, and snowmobiler, Sky lives in Canmore with her husband and two children and continues to build durable, experience-led hospitality assets across Western Canada.

Top 3 Value Bombs

Top 3 Value Bombs

Adrien Treccani is CEO of the Swiss AI startup Supervised. After scaling Metaco to a $250M Ripple acquisition, he developed an anti-process philosophy that inspired his shift into voice-first AI.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Not knowing exactly how things will turn out can be an advantage; ignorance often fuels persistence and long-term success.

2. Most startups stall at 30–40 employees because communication breaks before systems evolve.

3. Voice-first AI can replace low-value reporting and free managers to actually lead and coach.

Rachel Dove is the founder of Dungeons Not Dating, a platform helping players find tabletop parties. After setbacks and a beta year, she rebuilt, learned to code, and relaunched with a waitlist-first growth strategy.

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Traction is behavior, not enthusiasm. Likes and compliments don't equal conversions or retention.

2. Setbacks are data; they reveal skill gaps and show you exactly what to improve before your next move.

3. Ownership is freedom. Technical literacy changes your leverage, your confidence, and your outcomes.
