Colors: Giverny III

Posted on Sunday, Dec 3rd 2023

I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – Giverny III

Does AI aid this threat, or can it hinder its nefarious progress? Let us contemplate the issue.

Best of Bootstrapping: Bootstrapped Using Services from Romania to $5M+

Posted on Thursday, Nov 30th 2023

If you haven’t already, please study our free Bootstrapping Course and Investor Introductions page. 

Tremend Managing Director Marius Hanganu has built a services company from Romania to over $5 million in revenue. When we spoke in 2018, he was trying to bootstrap a product using the services business.

Sramana Mitra: Let’s start at the very beginning of your personal journey. Where are you from? Where were you born, raised, and in what kind of background?

Marius Hanganu: I’m from Romania. I was born near the seaside. At an early age, we moved to the capital city of Bucharest. My father is an Admiral in the Navy. A bit of that made a mark on myself. I got into computers around 12. I got into the Polytechnic University of Bucharest in the Computer Science Department. It’s probably the best in the country.
