Episode #7: Insights from the top: Andraž Tori - Zemanta co-founder.
In this episode, we host Andraž Tori, co-founder of Zemanta, which Outbrain acquired in 2017, and where he is now Head of Recommendations and Data Science.

In this episode, we talk about Outbrains' IPO and its relevance for Slovenia, get to know more about online advertising and the opportunities behind Web 3.0, whether Slovenia can develop an ecosystem of advertising-related companies, and what we should learn from mature startup ecosystems, such as Silicon Valley (USA) or Silicon Wadi (Israel).
