In European Founders at Work several of the top European startup founders and venture
capitalists are interviewed to explain their respective paths to building a successful company.
It takes a similar approach to Venture Capitalists at Work and other books in Apress' elite At
Work series but with a focus on the differences between building a successful company in Europe
versus the U.S. These insightful interviews are presented in a way that will help readers
understand the founders local or a global views how they competed on the global scale if and
how they got funding and their main challenges and opportunities. The companies chosen to be
interviewed are a mix of unique worldwide ventures: European-only ventures and even a few
copycats of already-proven concepts. As such it provides a balanced view on the European
scene. This mix also includes companies that started in Europe and moved to the U.S. companies
who went IPO in their country of origin companies with European venture capital backing and
companies that bootstrapped their way to success. Foreword by Saul Klein Founder of LOVEFiLM
and The Accelerator Group. Other books in the Apress At Work Series: Coders at Work Seibel
