FROME THE ARCHIVE:What does it take to build a successful remote company during uncertain times? I had a conversation with Sondre Rausch, CEO of Safety Wing back 2019 and he shared his journey from a teenage entrepreneur in Norway to a pioneer in global travel and medical insurance for remote teams and nomads.
Sondre shared how his early fascination with technology and entrepreneurship evolved, his educational background in economics, and how these elements coalesced to inspire his groundbreaking work in the global labor market infrastructure. He also discussed the benefits of remote work, emphasizing the flexibility it provides, and argued that remote work is the optimal way to build a modern company.
From a freelancer to a startup founder, Sondre takes us through the rollercoaster journey of creating Safety Wing. Learn about the crucial pre-launch phase, the necessity of rapid experimentation, and the invaluable lessons gleaned from failures. Discover key strategies for building a strong team and a desirable product, and gain insights into the stress of fundraising.
Sondre also sheds light on the explosion of remote work and nomadism post-COVID-19, with fascinating examples of how countries are vying to attract remote workers. Tune in to hear Sondra’s visionary ideas, including the concept of a global social safety net that could pave the way for the first "country on the internet".
