🌍✨ Last month, we welcomed Noemi to Barcelona as a volunteer at our Solidary Delivery Center where she worked to help those in need while preventing food waste. 🥫💡 In #Barcelona, #Madrid, and #Warsaw, we’ve set up Solidary Delivery Centers (SDCs) in collaboration with the non-profit organizations Fundación Altius and Bank Żywności SOS w Warszawie that redistribute food surplus and deliver meals to vulnerable people. With all the food collected from our partners in the SDCs, we are able to create food baskets adapted to the needs of the beneficiaries, dignifying access to food. Since opening the first SDC in Madrid 2 years ago in Spain, we’ve delivered over 1 million meals to more than 1,400 beneficiaries. We want to take part in shaping sustainable city models. One of our aims is to provide solutions that effectively manage food surplus while benefiting the community. So far in 2024 across all of our markets, we’ve delivered 2.5 million meals through Glovo Access and the SDCs, helping us to increase the positive impact we have in the cities where we operate. #Glovo #Spain #Poland #FoodRescue #Volunteering #Barcelona #CommunityAction

Meet Getpin, the 🥇1st place winners of our recent PowerUp Ukraine Conference & Startup Competition. 🎉 Starting in September and as a part of the Glovo Startup Lab, we are looking forward to hosting the 1st and 2nd place winners at our #Barcelona-Based HQ, #YellowPark for their upcoming residency program. Ahead of the residency program, we chatted with Volodymyr Leshchenko, Getpin CEO, to hear more about their journey and what advice they would give to entrepreneurs. 💡Founded in 2019, Getpin is a B2B SaaS that offers a single point to manage online presence, publish information, control reputation, analyze users' behavior and run local ads. 📓What was it like in the early days? 📓 Before the company was officially formed, we tested our idea by "selling" our "technological" solution, which was initially just a facade. We manually handled operations to alleviate customer pain points and identify what needed to be automated to enhance customer satisfaction. This process helped us finalize the business requirements for our technical solution and refine our presentation. However, the introduction of the new MVP didn't simplify our tasks, as we continued to address issues and respond to client feedback. Despite the challenges, it was an enjoyable experience. 👩🏼💻Why did you start Getpin? 👩🏼💻 I would split my journey before founding Getpin into three stages: 1. Painful: An insightful experience of leading the first official Google Adwords Reseller in the CEE region taught me about the problems businesses face when launching successful advertising campaigns online. 2. Fail at my first attempt to change the world: I tried to help businesses acquire customers online with an innovative pay-per-call SaaS tool, AdPhone (founded in 2012). Despite a large customer base, poor monetization led to the startup's failure. 3. Lessons learned: Understanding customers’ problems from a previous startup inspired me to try again. In 2019, Getpin was founded to build a global AI-based SaaS platform that helps businesses thrive online. 💡What advice would you give to future entrepreneurs? 💡 It's always challenging to offer advice since every project and setup is unique. However, I can share some general principles that have worked for me: 1. Entrepreneurship is a marathon, not a sprint. Prepare yourself for the long haul. 2. Dream big. Aim for a large market when creating a product or solution, but start with a small group of customers or a specific niche. 3. Keep the lines of communication open with your customers. Their needs are the primary source of information for your venture. 4. Expect to fail multiple times. Reframe your perception of failure as a part of the learning process and adapt accordingly. 5. When faced with seemingly insurmountable problems, take a step back. Don't panic—instead, get some rest. Often, you'll find the solution after a good night's sleep. #Glovo #Ukraine #PowerUpUkraine #StartUps #Entrepreneurship
