On this episode of The Lead Up, we catch up with Arta, Fiona, and Glenn, cofounders of Labbox, an ed-tech startup delivering electronic kits to inspire kids (ages 8+) for engineering.  Based in Kosovo, the founders discuss with us the difficulties of building a hardware startup in a small market and its effect on expansion, using early adopters to your advantage for building quality products, and how proactively avoiding premature scaling might be the best way to actually scale a business.
