Łukasz Foks
Microsoft
I'm a startup ecosystem builder & supporter, senior business manager, university lecturer, startup mentor, who is always keen to jump-in into "buddy-like" call with founders, community leaders and other subject-matter experts! My super-powers 🦸♂️: B2B growth strategies/go-to-market for Enterprise-focused companies, developer marketing, persona-mapping (aka lean customer development), business development for "deep tech" companies & workloads, value proposition design. Regions 🗺️: Central, West, East, South Europe. I joined Microsoft back in 2010, worked across several senior business management and product marketing roles, mainly focused on Central & Eastern Europe (CEE). I led several strategic Go-To-Market (GTM) motions for Microsoft Azure - incl. Lead Generation Campaigns, pan-European Partnerships with Developer and Startup Communities/Media Outlets, and many more. I'm part of the CEE Azure Business Group HQ team, responsible for our growth and collaboration in Digital Native area, in 30+ CEE countries like Poland, Estonia, Romania, Greece, and more. 🌎 I'm a "digital nomad" who love to visit other ecosystems in Europe, Asia and US. 🤝 Looking for a mentor?
