Fronted

Scaling a company across borders is exciting, and overwhelming. Founders often face the same questions: 

When do we expand? How do we hire abroad without slowing down? What signals confidence to investors, and what raises red flags?

In this fireside chat, we sit down with Henrik Hatlebrekke from 

 to unpack how investors actually think about global growth. You’ll hear what they look for in teams that hire internationally, the patterns they see across their portfolio, and the decisions that separate companies who scale well from those who struggle.

This session brings together real experience, practical lessons, and honest insights, designed for founders, CEOs, and people leaders who want to hire globally, expand faster, and avoid the common pitfalls of international growth.

A grounded discussion on the decisions, talent, and timing that shape successful cross-border growth.
