Vom 25m²-Büro zum grössten Onlineshop der Schweiz: Digitec Galaxus CEO Florian Teuteberg (EP#561)
Q: Du bist der Mitgründer und CEO von Digitec Galaxus, dem grössten Online-Händler der Schweiz. Wie habt ihr begonnen und wann glaubtet ihr, dass ihr das Geschäft zu etwas Größerem machen könntet?
Der Weg begann mit dem gemeinsamen Verständnis, dass es eine echte Marktlücke für Online-Beratung und faire Preise gibt. Wir starteten als Gamer, bauten PCs, lernten den Markt kennen und erkannten schnell, dass Online-Verkauf und guter Service die zentrale Triebfeder sind. Die ersten Erfolge kamen, als Mund-zu-Mund-Verkauf passierte und wir beschlossen, das Angebot online zu stellen, um mehr Kunden zu erreichen.
Why Europe Needs Its Own Cloud Infrastructure: Exoscale CEO Mathias Nöbauer (EP#562)
Q: What are your thoughts on Europe's ability to own its cloud infrastructure in the next few years?
Europe needs to accelerate investment, talent, and entrepreneurship in sovereign tech and push for a more unified, scalable market to compete with the US and China.
Why Europe Needs Its Own Cloud Infrastructure: Exoscale CEO Mathias Nöbauer (EP#562)
Q: How do you balance staying close to customer details with stepping back to guide the larger strategy?
I rely on a diverse team, escalate decisions to the extended leadership when appropriate, and stay involved in crucial guidance moments while letting capable teams manage day-to-day interactions.
