🎉 Celebrating a milestone in innovation, this special episode of CVM Stories marks 13 years since a pitch that changed everything! 🚀 👨‍💼 Join our host Sarunas and Egidijus as they reunite with Mindaugas and Daniel in a nostalgic look back to the day they pitched their vision. Their successful pitch not only won the room but laid the foundation for what would become Exacaster. 🤔 Why do telecom companies, with their treasure trove of customer data, fall short in monetization while giants like Google excel? We're exploring the game-changing tactics that set industry leaders apart. 💥 Dive into discussions about embracing the full spectrum of innovation – from celebrating successes to learning from failures, and deeply understanding customers to speak their language. 🤝 We bring you both perspectives – the anticipation of buyers and the aspirations of sellers, illustrating the powerful partnerships and breakthroughs in the industry. 🔗 This episode is more than a success story; it's a tale of transformation and vision, seeing opportunity where others see challenges. 🎧 Listen to our celebration episode for a mix of history, insights, and the forward-thinking spirit that drives tech innovation today. 🌟 Timestamps: [00:00:00] - A Toast to 13 Years of Innovation [00:02:34] - The Untapped Data Goldmine in Telecom [00:13:20] - Deep Customer Insights: Speaking Their Language [00:17:59] - Buyers' Hopes vs. Sellers' Dreams [00:23:33] - Investing in Innovation: The Pitch That Birthed Exacaster [00:34:02] - Embracing Failure: A Learning Tool.
