To fill the ever growing need for local pet accommodation whilst still maintaining the care, love and attention our pets deserve, Alexis founded <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.madpaws.com.au\/\"><strong>Mad Paws<\/strong><\/a><strong>. Currently, the Sydney-based start-up has over 20,000 approved sitters\/walkers and 500.000 pets across Australia on its books. <\/strong><\/p><p>Alexis grew up in Antwerp and studied <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uantwerpen.be\/nl\/studeren\/aanbod\/alle-opleidingen\/tew-bedrijfskunde\/\">Business Economics<\/a>. \u201cI had a great time at the University of Antwerp, but I was also disciplined, focused and took my studies very seriously. I was part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uantwerpen.be\/nl\/overuantwerpen\/faculteiten\/bedrijfswetenschappen-economie\/studeren\/honoursprogramma-fbe\/jump\/\">JUMP programme<\/a> and did the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uantwerpen.be\/nl\/overuantwerpen\/faculteiten\/bedrijfswetenschappen-economie\/studeren\/internationalisering\/summer-schools\/india-goa\/\">Summer school in India<\/a>. In those 4 weeks, you are part of a group of 22-year-olds working and travelling together, bonding over shared experiences (I distinctly remember for instance we all got food poisoning at one point).\u201d<\/p><p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>\u201cThat trip inspired me to study abroad and to ultimately start my own business in Australia. And one of the students who I travelled with during the Summer school, is now working with me. So never underestimate the power of your university network.\u201d<\/em><\/p><p>\u201cThen, during my Master\u2019s year, I received a fund from the<em> Koning Boudewijnfonds<\/em> which enables students to continue their studies abroad. I am still very grateful for that, because it allowed me to study a Master in Management at the University of Sydney Business School.\u201d<\/p><h2><strong>The origin of Mad Paws<\/strong><\/h2><p>\u201cI got the idea for Mad Paws while I was looking after my friend\u2019s dog, a Labrador named Honey. During my studies, I got the opportunity to discuss the innovative business models Airbnb and Uber use with several business leaders. That\u2019s when the idea came up to do something similar for pets.<\/p><p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>&#8220;We went to the dog park and started talking to people, to really get understand their needs and to see what would interest them in such a platform.\u201d<\/em><\/p><h2><strong>Silver linings to the crisis<\/strong><\/h2><p>The corona crisis has been tough on Mad Paws, especially in the beginning. In April, when Australia went into lockdown, the company experienced a revenue drop of 95%. \u201cI don\u2019t have to tell you how scary that is. We knew people weren\u2019t able to travel, were working from home,\u2026 the need for sitters dropped drastically. So we started making deals with suppliers, we put people on reduced time, we cut costs,\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p><p>\u201cBut we also decided to reinvent ourselves. We started a pet food subscription, which we launched in a matter of weeks. Thanks to that, we were able to turn things around. Now, Australia is handling the crisis well. Things are starting up again and for us, business is booming. Not just the newly-launched pet food service, but our other services as well.&#8221;<\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1598 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"Alexis Soulopoulos Mad Paws\" width=\"525\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-1536x804.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-2048x1072.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/business-economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mp-400x209.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/p><p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>&#8220;There is one big silver lining to the whole crisis: people started adopting more and more dogs from shelters.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p><h2><strong>Young Executive of the Year<\/strong><\/h2><p>Given the way Alexis managed to turn his business around, it\u2019s no surprise The CEO Magazine named him <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theceomagazine.com\/events\/mad-paws-alexis-soulopoulos-young-executive\/\">Young Executive of the Year<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve been nominated for awards before but I\u2019d never actually won.
