US vs EU Building Mode

​TL;DR: What separates US and European start-up ambition, expectations, and go-to-market execution? Explore the differences through a first-hand founder story at Shipyard space 🔥

​Silicon Valley has produced many of the world’s most influential technology companies. But in an increasingly digital and globalised world, where geography is no longer the barrier it once was, what are its founders still doing differently?

​How can founders from Europe, the Baltics, and Latvia close the gap with Silicon Valley—not only in the number of unicorns created, but in the number of globally successful start-ups built?

​Join for an incredible experience story by no other than Varun Singh, who has done it all. Decades of experience in tech development, with vast experience in EU and US. Followed by a candid QnA session, and GTM workflow session.
