From Idea to Exit: A Swiss Startup Journey Through the App Economy

Track:Knowledge Sharing

This session is a founder-to-founder conversation about building a data startup in one of the fastest-moving industries of our time. Remember when apps exploded and suddenly there really was “an app for that”? Behind the scenes, startups like 42matters were riding the wave, figuring out how to make sense of millions of apps, and turning that into business. Andrea will walk through the rollercoaster journey of 42matters, from ETH roots to global growth and ultimately acquisition by Similarweb, a NYSE-listed company, sharing the choices, pivots, mistakes, and defining moments along the way.
