How Native Teams is rethinking global work

What does it take to build a borderless company from the Balkans? And how do you design a startup culture that people actually want to stay in?

In this episode of Europe Builds, we talk to Jack Thorogood, founder and CEO of Native Teams, a fast-growing fintech platform simplifying payments, employment, and compliance for global professionals. With roots in North Macedonia and a footprint spanning 85+ countries, Native Teams is tackling remote work infrastructure with a bold cultural ethos and an employee-first mindset.

We explore how a personal problem became a scalable business idea, why building for the overlooked is a winning strategy, and what it means to create company culture with real intention. Jack also shares his playbook for hiring across borders, why remote culture needs more than Slack and Zoom, and how to build a business where no one wants to leave.
