My name is Styopa Ivanov. Co-founder and CEO of Salaryhub.com - we help companies pay their teams in any country, in any currency, with an individual approach and compliance with local legislation.
I haven't been working on the project for long, but finally last month we reached breakeven, built the platform - in half a year we caught up with market leaders in functionality by about 90%. Now the main problem is differentiating ourselves from competitors with similar offerings and aggressive sales.
Interesting past experiences:
1. Ran an ironman. Generally a big sports fan, I play or have played almost every possible sport; the only unfulfilled sports idea is to try polo.
2. Worked for 5 years at RTP Global, the largest international VC from Russia (after DST). Created deals worth $120M, participated in boards of billion-dollar companies, sat on boards of smaller companies.
3. Successfully failed several business projects, from a hookah lounge near the university to a social app in the UK with $300k funding.
4. At a semi-trailer manufacturing company, grew the sales department in half a year and increased the department's revenue from zero to $330k.
5. Founder of the Kappa Vedi community, somewhat similar to Opora, which turned 9 years old 1.5 weeks ago. In general, I am/was a member of many communities.
