Managing multi-country growth avec Elizabeth Coleon, CMO
En 2 mots
The ability to expand and manage growth beyond one home market is often when a successful company enters billion dollar company territory. So many promising companies have failed to do so, in spite of initial successes. Elizabeth Coleon has successfully driven this effort not once but three times at PayPal, Qonto, and today Withings as Chief Marketing Officer. She has developed frameworks and put them to the test at each of those companies. During her Pollen session, you will learn how to prioritize markets, run and adapt your strategies, and build the right cross-country organization.

I really enjoyed working with Elizabeth. Her top strength, among many others, was developing growth plans to manage the complexity of multiple countries and products. She drove the project of using an existing product, peer to peer payments, to be a key consumer growth lever. This ended up changing the go to market strategy across Europe
