This year @euinc_petition went from "yea, never going to happen" to "let's propose a law in Q1 2026" πͺπΊπ₯
What a ride. I am super proud of the EUβINC community and of what we achieved together in 2025.
This shows how it only needs a few thousand crazy people to create massive shifts. Let's be the crazy ones. Let's fix Europe for startups in 2026.
In 2026 β esp Q1, Q2 β will be the next hot phase for EUβINC.
Brussels will propose something in Q1, we (together) need to make sure it's actually useful. Then afterwards we have to get the nation state leaders on board. Much to do for all of us.
Does it sound impossible? Sure.
Everything is impossible, until it's done.
2026 LFG π₯πͺπΊ
@starter_story you should get all revenue claims verified for your interviews before you bring on guests. Should be easy enough with Stripe Verified screenshots / @marclou TrustMRR.
Otherwise, awesome show!
@SebastianRoehl You are an inspiration Sebastian! You take business ideas that are some of the most oversaturated apps and still find ways to make them better, good job! :)
Holy sh*t - the EU wanted to get a pan-European Inc (EU Inc) so startups can more easily do business across the EU - this is super important to compete with US and Chinese startups.
Here's who they asked for advice for this STARTUP entity:
Deutsche Bank
Notariatskammer
IHK βΌοΈπ€¦ββοΈ
Deutsche BΓΆrse
German Tax Union
The EU Commission
More Notaries
More German Banks
...
What kind of joke is this? There is not a single founder among these π€―.
They have to ask STARTUPs what their hurdles are. Not the incumbents who want the system to stay as it is...
What a colossal failure.
@lemonsqueezy it's been over a week and my customers can't upgrade their payment method in the billing portal. It just doesn't save.
We have lost more than $1500 because of this.
Can you please reply to my e-mails and fix this problem? I can't be the only one.
@tdinh_me Hey Tony!
Long time fan, will your book also be relevant to founders that already have 30-40k in revenue or mostly targeted at people to teach them to get from 0-1?
@jrfarr@stripe Already for a long time 2 requests for LS:
1. Let people apply discounts to upgrades of subscriptions.
2. Make it not take 10 minutes for affiliates to sign-up to my store. Bonus if you let me give different affiliates different revenue share %.
Yoo @tdinh_me when are you building a cursor/augment like coding editor with the same set up as TypingMind (BYOK).
You can probably charge 5x of what you are charging for TypingMind. I am ready to pay!
@alexcooldev Thanks for the insight! What kind of response times do you have per 60 minute audio and if you process as much as you do, do you ever notice latency?
Again, thanks for sharing! :)
