Bliu Bliu

Claudio called a friend and told him about his dream – it took 30 minutes to convince him to join the adventure with 5k. Getting another 100k took a bit longer, meaning we had to win two competitions – Startup Weekend and TechChill in Riga. After that the phone kept on ringing.
The real pain about starting a business in Lithuania is…
Building up the right conditions. You need a great idea and team, you need money and a plan. Money hasn’t been an issue in Lithuania, but actually finding the right team members.
The person that inspires us is…
Steve Jobs is a daily inspiration – he knew how to communicate his visions with passion and precision. Lately, we also got inspired by Stephen Krashen, a linguist from the US. We love his theories.
The one app/service that we couldn’t live without is…
Google Drive. All the files are there, updated and synchronised.
The one thing we would save from our burning office is…
The box with the love letters from our users 🙂
Focus on only one language and make it work perfectly. How boring is that! We like to be in beta with some 100 languages and they work…or kinda work 😀
The one thing that will make us quit is…
An asteroid might force us to stay home for a weekend or two.
Our inside joke is…
Jokes? We arevery serious, there is no time for jokes….yeah, right!
You might not believe it, but we…
Every morning we have breakfast with bacon or steak at the office. A few of us are into the Paleo Diet.
We’ll call ourselves successful when…
We are having fun building Bliu Bliu so we are successful. On the business side – when our tool will be used in every school in every country.
The startup we really want to see on inventures’ Startup Pick is…
TrackDuck from Lithuania. They have a cool story.
