About

Founder of Scaling Europe. Every week I host four or five of the top European founders and investors on my live show. There's an accompanying newsletter to keep you up to date with all things European Tech. I also livestream top tech events from the continent. Just set up my twitter here: https://x.com/SebJohnsonUK Started my career as a Strategy Consultant which I realised wasn't for me long term. Jumped ship to join a super early stage startup where I ended working across Operations / Chief of staff type of work. I then joined Deel in the Product team where I worked on a zero-to-one product. Learnt how to move fast. Analysis published in Forbes, Business Cloud, UKTN, Tech EU and The Grocer.
