Originally published by Sramana Mitra on LinkedIn: Starting in Europe, Scaling in America
During this week’s roundtable, we had as our guest Alexandre Wentzo, CEO of Casewise, an enterprise software company that started in London and has scaled in the US. The company is self-financed and did $24 Million in revenue last year. Our discussion focused on some of the nuances of starting an enterprise software company in Europe and scaling it in the US.
You can listen to the recording of this roundtable here:
AuGrav
As for the pitches, first up, Vivek Krishna from Coimbatore, India, pitched AuGrav, a custom jewelry e-commerce site that is just touching $100k in revenue. Nice execution. Scaling it further is plenty doable.
Say Umm
Next, Danish Dhamani from Philadelphia, PA, pitched Say Umm…, a virtual reality public speaking practice and training app. It received great reception in our audience, and both Alex and I thought it was a smashing idea. People from the audience were offering to be beta clients, and Alex may also do a beta at his company.
Medzap
Then, Arjun Sarin from New Delhi, India, pitched Medzap, a medical records and diagnosis oriented site content business that he wishes to monetize via affiliate marketing. Arjun is bootstrapping with a paycheck, and I advised him to build the business on the side, not quit his day job anytime soon. Affiliate businesses are very easy to do on the side.
Career Conduit
Last up, Niranjan Putla from Hyderabad, India, pitched Career Conduit, a career coaching and mentoring business that is currently struggling at the face of cheaper alternatives. Niranjan also has certain mental blocks that hold him back from adopting modern scaling technologies. I advised him to study how 1M/1M works.
