THREAD: I joined @Siftedeu as Employee #1 two years ago today when we had no newsletter, no website and a few tragic desks in a forgotten corner of @FT HQ. (Look how far we& #39;ve come!) Some of my personal highlights since then...
1) Visiting Barcelona to meet @glovo @francesca_bria @JorTorrent @typeform in my first month... and then a long time later interviewing @oscarpierremi once again on the most enormous stage @SlushHQ https://vimeo.com/375088136 ">https://vimeo.com/375088136...
4) (Hopefully) giving diversity in tech more of a platform, with lists like this one https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten"> and interviews with the likes of @checkwarner @diversityvc @carolineramade @katborlongan @MrAndyDavis https://sifted.eu/articles/diversity-tech-initiatives-europe-list/">https://sifted.eu/articles/...
6) Interviewing heaps of brilliant folk on stage at what feels like just about every (virtual) event, from @SlushHQ to @thenextweb to our own Sifted Talks — and only having to kick out one Zoom bomber so far https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙈" title="Nichts sehen-Affe" aria-label="Emoji: Nichts sehen-Affe"> ( @hkanji @martasjogren @janmiczaika) https://sifted.eu/articles/startup-funding-coronavirus/">https://sifted.eu/articles/...
7) Commissioning opinion pieces on everything from digital nomad visas in Estonia to the startup mental health crisis to why fundraising is not like dating. (Got an idea? Pitch me!) https://sifted.eu/articles/digital-nomad-visa-estonia/">https://sifted.eu/articles/...
8) Growing our newsletter audience from just my dad and a handful of other guinea pigs (thanks @AndysHVC @anisahob @anjali28 @carlmesnerlyons et al) to 50,000+ founders, operators, investors & more across Europe and beyond https://sifted.eu/newsletter/ ">https://sifted.eu/newslette...
9) And of course, last but most definitely not least, working with (and hiring some of) our absolutely fantastic team @MimiBilling @maijapalmer @MStothard @kittygknowles @connorbilboe @CecileBussy @timmpsmith @KitGillet @Marie_a_Paris @i_woodford @johnthornhillft (Helen, Anuj...)
