The Most Valuable Startup Ever Will Share Knowledge at LOGIN Startup Fair
2016
Mar 29

Six professionals from Uber, a $60B+ valued transport startup widely considered to be the biggest recent startup success story, are confirmed to hold two-days long Masterclasses in the areas of hypergrowth, technical debt, design philosophy, recruiting and others at the LOGIN Startup Fair on 5-6 of May.

Uber, the best overall startup for two years in a row according to TechCrunch and the most valuable startup in the world, already has presence in Lithuania, having established a technical office in Vilnius earlier in 2015, its only office in the Baltic states. Whilst top engineers and programmers in Vilnius have been working to maintain the company’s IT infrastructure, Uber is also keen to share their knowledge with other startup and tech professionals from around the CEE region.

And so the following speakers and topics are expected at the LOGIN Startup Fair in Vilnius:

1: Enn Metsar, General Manager, Uber: Launching new products in new and/or existing markets
2: Vaidas Zlotkus, Engineering Manager, Uber: Challenges of Engineering at Hypergrowth
3: Linda Aiello, HR Director, EMEA, Uber: Recruitment at speed
4: Joost van der Ree, Product Designer, Uber: How a strong design philosophy helps tackling complex challenges.

In addition to Uber, more tutors will be provided by Startup.lt, a Vilnius-based startup accelerator:

1: Tautvydas Gylys, Founder at UX Academy and Product Manager at Vinted, who will talk about user experience
2: Mik Stroyberg, Founder and CEO at LEMONSQUEEZE, who will explain about the challenges and opportunities whilst entering the US market
3: Jean-Baptiste Daguené, Head of Business Development at TableAir, who will share his experience in B2B sales
4: Nils Michaelis, Director of Global Customer Marketing at Trustpilot, who will go deep into B2B marketing essentials

More are to be announced – stay tuned!

LOGIN Startup Fair’s Masterclasses are tailored to startup professionals who want to broader their skills with experienced experts. Access to the Masterclasses will be provided to startups taking part in the Startup Valley and Startup Battle, while non-participants will be able to book their seats through LOGIN ticketing system in early April.
