Today’s story is about Jarek Kutylowski, the CEO of DeepL. DeepL is a platform that provides high-quality machine translation and AI-based writing tools, supporting multilingual communication for businesses. It was also one of the few companies to develop a product based on AI long before AI became widely popular. Recently, it concluded a fundraising round with a valuation of $2 billion. Jarek, the CEO, moved from Poland to Germany during his childhood. He didn’t speak a word of German. Although it was only a few months, Jarek remembers that time vividly. Later, after completing his PhD and working, he discovered that European companies were spending significant amounts due to language barriers. Speed was important to him, and the company grew rapidly. This video contains insights into DeepL’s strategy and decision-making to stay ahead of the competition at a fast pace.
