Description

What does it take to build a technology business from scratch in a new market?

In this episode of Uplink, Emmanuel Sevray, Head of Sales SEMEA, and Lionel David, Solutions Architect at Megaport, reveal how they transformed a virtually non-existent operation into a thriving business serving over 100 major French companies in less than four years.

From delivering 50 Gbps during peak mass-mailing campaigns to turning customer challenges into platform innovations, Manu and Lionel share how a small team of five created a blueprint for success now shaping Megaport’s growth across Southern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

We explore the importance of complementary skills, the agility of making big decisions in 24 hours, and how ecosystem partnerships power expansion. Their story is one of hustle, creativity, and technical excellence.

πŸš€ Uplink explores the future of connectivity, cloud, and AI with the people shaping it. Hosted by Michael Reid.
