From cybersecurity and aerospace to generative 3D, startup leaders are scaling ambitious companies from European soil and taking on global markets. In this conversation at the StrictlyVC event in Athens, we talked to three founders about what it takes to go from idea to impact while navigating the continent's unique challenges—and why building in Europe is no longer a constraint, but a competitive edge.

The conversation includes...
Konstantna Psoma: Founder and CEO, Kaedim
Haris Pylarinos: Founder and CEO, Hack the Box
Simon Schaefer: Founder / Co-Initiator, Factory / EU Inc. Petiton
