About this event

Webinar overview:

Are you looking to grow your tech business? It’s becoming more common than ever for scaling companies to find competitive advantages through international expansion.

Waterloo EDC has asked two successful founders – Zack Dugow (Insticator) and Marcelo Cortes (Faire) – to discuss their international office growth strategies. Insticator is a NYC-based adtech company with six separate locations, including two in North America, one in Europe and three in Asia. Faire, an online marketplace, recently achieved "unicorn" status and was founded with two locations - Silicon Valley and Waterloo.

It’s easier than you think to create an international tech office.

During this 60-minute webinar they will discuss:

  • The strategic underpinning behind creating international offices
  • Practical considerations like internal buy-in and location selection
  • Advice for companies interested in following a similar growth model

An open Q&A will follow short presentations from Dugow and Cortes.

Not available on September 24? Sign up for the webinar and we’ll make sure you get a recording.

Speakers:

Zack Dugow, Founder & CEO of Insticator.

Marcelo Cortes, Co-founder & CTO of Faire.
