Fortech is a big name in the Romanian tech market. They build reliable software and IT solutions that help companies all across the globe, and he’s been on this path since 2003.

It wasn’t always easy, and Calin will share some thoughts on the hard times too. But he takes it a step further and, in our episode, touches on a lot of important aspects for the average (and successful) european entrepreneur.

Fortech didn’t peak yet. They’re constantly evolving, and with Calin holding the reins there’s no indication that the growth will stop. If it was, he’d put some of the wisdom he shared with us to good use.
