Breaking Perceptions: Exploring Underdog Founder Stories with Zivile Einikyte

Today we are joined by host of the 'Perception Paradox' podcast, Zivile Einikyte.
In today’s episode of Tech Talks, Zivile Einikyte, host of the 'Perception Paradox' podcast, challenges the glamorized narrative of entrepreneurship by diving deep into the authentic stories of underdog founders, particularly from less-documented Eastern European startup ecosystems. Zivile shares her mission to showcase founders who aren't Silicon Valley celebrities, but passionate entrepreneurs who've hustled their way up from basements, without government support or easy access to capital. Her podcast focuses on three core angles: life philosophies, entrepreneurship, and personal wellness, creating a holistic view of founder journeys. Highlighting the importance of brutal honesty, Zivile discusses how her podcast creates a safe space for founders to share both their triumphs and challenges. She emphasizes that entrepreneurship isn't just about raising billions, but about genuine human stories of determination, curiosity, and resilience.
