Hello Demetre, I'm and my team from Ukraine. We have a nice ecosystem for digital products, maybe the best since 2022y. But now some of our team are working from other European countries.

@andre_masko Makes perfect Sense Andre, my godfather is Ukrainian and I've been thinking about Ukraine a lot last few years especially, I hope the market comes back into full effect in no time, I would love to be part of that market when it comes back into full blast!

From the United States and there are just tons of makers and builders out here it's super inspiring! Where are you from Demetre?

I'm from Morocco, it's still an emerging market for the tech startups, but there are a lot of opportunities and investment in local infrastructures coming. Especially after Morocco granted to organize "World Cup 2030" with Spain and Portugal. One of the best aspects about Morocco is it geographic place in the north of Africa and next to Europe. We had many good opportunities in the past to work and learn from people around Europe and the Arabic market. VCs in Morocco are a lot skeptical when it comes to putting money in early stage startups. It's why we never took someone's money and still bootstrapping our efforts. Also when it comes to launching, it's a long way to educate and convince local people to invest in digital solutions, that's why we decided to put our efforts on global launch instead. Btw, i'm launching soon, please hit the notify me if you want to support :)

From Finland! It's pretty good but always could be better, in terms of startups most are active in Helsinki (capital city) area.

@joonatanvanhala Helsinki has quite a lot of good events, hopefully I'll be able to attend this year, Love finish people, I know a few and they are just great people to hang around with!

I'm from Connecticut in the United States. There are many thousands of budding entrepreneurs coming out of college, and I am one of them. The issue I've found is that there isn't a strong entrepreneurial 'presence'; a lack of a community, but some big organizations pushing to make dedicated physical spaces for entrepreneurs in the capitol of CT

I am from Georgia, I am quite aquiented with the ecosystem here, it's gaining traction in recent years, a lot of change is happening, new laws and young people trying their luck, but at this point we are quite a small market, there is a lot of room for improvement! let me hear about your ecosystems

Hi from South Korea! The startup scene has been booming in recent years here, thanks to substantial government investment.

From India, and a vibrant start-up community here. However for pure-tech products, the local market is still not that great, hence the majority of such start-ups focus outside, including mine :)
