In today's episode, Dan and Zayne interview the founders of Rooby -- Panos and Evgeny! Rooby (https://rooby.eu/) is a company focused on women's nutrition. Their first product line is 100% Organic Raw Bars targeted to fulfill nutrients needed for a smoother menstrual cycle!
About Evgeny: I got a bachelor in Logistics and Supply Chain Management. After university, I worked as a warehouse designer and immediately, I was bored with a routine job and wanted to do smth more challenging. After a year, I quit the job and started my first business - online socks store. I went pretty well, but after 1,5 years, the crisis hit in Russia and I had to close my business. After that, I learned how to code for iOS and got a job in a startup, where I spent the next two years. After that, I quit and created an online course that would teach people how to code, but it wasn't going good. So I decided to study and get new connections at Erasmus University. After graduation, I got acquainted with the seed cycle concept, and after some time, we started this company. It took us almost half a year to bring the product to market, and now, here I am, developing a women's snack brand together with Panos.
About Panos: I hold a bachelor in Economics with a major in Business Finance and Investments and a Master's in Strategic Entrepreneurship. I met my business partner Evgeny during our Master's, and from day 1, I knew we would start a company together. I fulfilled my greek military obligations as a corporal and did an internship in Management Consulting at Deloitte. My superpower is that I convert the hair of my head into stress, and that's why I'm totally bold at the age of 25. Why someone like me started a female-oriented business? Well, we found a market gap, and we dived right into it. If that means that to succeed, we will help women deal with their menstrual problems starting from my girlfriend; I'm more than happy & excited to be on this train.
