In this video, Setle CEO Daniel Cervenka, CEO of Setle (an online payment platform), speaks with Entrepreneur Network partner Alley about his most resilient moment.

Cervenka points to an early moment in the company’s history, when it was set up inside an incubator and equipped with a grant from Google. At the time, Cervenka was also grappling with securing a visa to properly conduct his business.

However, getting past these obstacles helped the CEO develop a thicker skin and become more familiar with the difficulties of running a startup.
