In this episode, we dive into the challenge of selling products across the diverse markets of Europe.
Nicolas Appert, CEO of Lengow, shares why Europe is a huge market of 30 small, unique countries with different rules, languages, and payment habits. He explains how localization is key, going beyond simple translation to include cultural understanding and regulatory needs like VAT and sizing.
