🚀 Vilnius Founders: Building Global Brands with Marius Buzaitis | Orbio World and Vykintas Maknickas | Saily
​Orbio World is a rapidly growing Lithuanian e-commerce and product development company that builds consumer brands and sells directly to customers internationally. Its products span wellness, electronics, household essentials, and digital solutions. Orbio employs more than 260 people and generated €400 million in revenue in 2025.
​How do you build a business at that scale—and keep it growing profitably without external funding?
​Join Vilnius Founders for an evening with Marius Buzaitis, Co-founder of Orbio World, exploring the journey behind those numbers: finding products people want, winning customers abroad, and building the teams that make it happen.
​This interview will be in Lithuanian and will not be streamed – so be there or be square!
​Interested in joining Orbio?
​Meet the team during networking after the interview and explore career opportunities.
​What we’ll discuss
​From idea to demand: how to test a product and decide whether to scale it or walk away.
​Winning customers abroad: what makes a product, brand, and marketing campaign work across different markets.
​Profitable growth: balancing advertising spend, customer retention, and margins.
​Building the team: which hires matter at each stage and how a founder’s role changes as the company grows.
​The difficult lessons: mistakes, failed experiments, and what Marius would do differently.
​Expect an open fireside chat, audience questions, and networking over drinks. Come with a question, meet fellow founders and operators, and leave with ideas to apply to your own business.
​Also joining us: Saily CEO Vykintas Maknickas
​Saily is a travel eSIM app from the team behind NordVPN, helping travelers get mobile data abroad without swapping physical SIM cards. It went from idea to launch in just 19 weeks, reached 1 million users in its first year, and has grown to a team of 200+.
​Vykintas Maknickas, CEO of Saily and former Head of Product Strategy at Nord Security, will share lessons from building, launching, and scaling Saily globally: winning early users, standing out in a competitive market, and growing the team.
