Practical guide on how to scale to the US from the CEE from our own Marcin Borowiecki (who quite obviously writes this very post as well :-)
Serial entrepreneur turned investor. Supporting global expansion of emerging European tech champions
When in Rome… write a blog Since changing the side of the table from entrepreneurship to VC I long resisted the established practice of content generation. After a year and sharing similar stories and tips with dozens of start-ups time to scale the approach Time for Barbarians at the (Golden) Gate blog. This is a practical guide of scaling to the US by companies rooted in the CEE (Central and Eastern Europe). Loosely inspired by Booksy experience and discussion with leaders from other companies who are scaling successfully from the CEE I start with structural advantages of CEE start-ups that make conquering global tech markets possible. Next episodes go through the lists of hoops and traps (in most of which you fill find my footprints 😱 ) – I will do my best to warn and give my $0.02 on these. Many thanks for those of you have contributed to this (often unknowingly 😉 ) by sharing your experiences, thoughts, comments or reviewed early drafts. The list clearly includes Booksy mafia (Stefan Batory, Konrad Howard Dorota Machaj), those who built even bigger tech businesses out of CEE (Peter Bialo), those who will soon make it (Agata Mroczkowska, Wojtek Rokosz, Dhruv Agrawal), and shepherds of other cohorts of global challengers out of CEE (Andris K. Berzins). Episode 1 here. The only rosy episode in the season. Enjoy responsibly, comment, disagree, trash or encourage
Today we change our name! Avivo Capital acquires "N" to become Navivo Capital • Navivo = n x Avivo = n x potential of the companies we work with and founders we support • Navivo refers to the navigation across the oceans to bring the best tech companies from Europe to the World • Last but not least – it is harder to confuse us with a few other financial institutions starting with an “a” 😊 Back to work
