Entrepreneurship & Intrapreneurship with Shira Levy Barkan, GM of Fiverr Business

Monday, March 22, 2021, 3:00 – 4:30 PM UTC

Building growth engines within a startup is crucial for success. Shira Levy-Barkan, a serial intrapreneur, will share how building growth engines both in startups and large corporations like Microsoft has helped her propel Fiverr Business, a major growth engine for Fiverr, which itself has grown 15X since its IPO in June 2021.

About this event

Every startup suffers the same growing pains: developing a variety of verticals at the same time, a constant need to prioritize or postpone developments on the roadmap no matter how necessary, internal fights over resource priority – the list goes on. Hiring long-term, contracted employees for every skill niche comes at low speeds with high risks. It gets in the way of the agility and productivity needed to grow and scale at the right pace. Mix the scattered, out of sync remote work of 2020 into the pot, and disasters are waiting to happen. At the end of the day, simple growing pains and missed opportunities can kill even the most promising of startup ideas.

Startups need resources, NOW. In order to discover and reach their full potential, they need every star player to put their best foot forward and get every great idea done – and for that, they need Fiverr Business. The idea of Fiverr Business is to cultivate and support startups within startups: giving companies the tools to work simultaneously on multiple verticals, reduce headcount and save time, and grow faster. The platform also gives managers of teams administrative and collaboration tools for overview and insight of all projects being managed at the same time, from the same place. By scaling growth engines within a company, the whole company is strengthened. What I've accomplished as an intrapreneur is possible for anyone who has Fiverr Business by their side.

This talk is moderated by Lirone Glikman, Global Ambassador at Startup Grind and a Global Business Development Consultant.
