At the recent 10×10 Beijing event on August 18, App Annie CEO Bertrand Schmitt spoke about Going International. He shared insightful tips and strategies on taking a China-based global startup international, drawing from his own experience growing App Annie as a global company.
Along with talking about understanding product need from a global perspective and why you should go international, Bertrand shares about where to find funding, saying that for Series A funding, “you can find China-based investors with an international mindset.” Series B funding is a different story, and Bertrand suggests going outside China to find investors “only if you have demonstrated the ability to scale your business and interest from foreign users and foreign customers.”
