Products and technology travel faster than companies can.

So what happens is, for startup companies, usually in the olden days, you didn't care about going international until you had a few hundred million dollars in revenue.

Now these companies have to go sooner and sooner than actually.

Yeah, I mean, the reality is that...

products and technology travel faster than companies can, right?

Because if you've got a great product, everybody learns about it very quickly, instantaneously.

You can access it through APIs wherever in the world you are.

You can build on top of those things.

So what happens is for startup companies, usually in the olden days,

You didn't care about going international until you had a few hundred million dollars in revenue, et cetera.

Now these companies have to go sooner and sooner internationally.

So while the products are being discovered internationally sooner, also it is to Ben's earlier point,

It's easier to adapt these products for local markets much more easily thanks to AI.

Or as Wwise becomes the interface to localize and internationalize these products, it's so much more easier.

But in order to capitalize on the opportunity at scale, things don't change, right?

I mean, you still have to be in region.

You still have to understand the market structure of the region that you want to operate in.

You have to understand partnerships.

You have to build relationships.

Lots of other countries are very relationship-based economies, not transaction-based economies.
