Next week I am sitting down with @fdouetteau, co-founder and CEO of @dataiku to chat all things US expansion, focusing on building the right team. What does it take for a European founder to build a big business on the other side of the Atlantic and to make it truly global? Dear X, what should I ask him? What would you like to know?
