Contents of the presentation

A few things that will be discussed:

  1. Overview of the startup scene in the Baltics and Europe.
  2. Need for communication skills. Tech-focused people are amazing at building things, but might be lacking "comms" skills (to promote // sell their product); this is especially evident in the Baltics - how to fix it to scale globally.
  3. Tech companies Black Unicorn PR worked with + what was their approach to PR.
  4. What to bear in mind when scaling internationally.
  5. PR as a "strategic science". It acts like "glue" to bring people, skills and ideas together.
