So take, for instance, data science.

Data scientists usually spend half of this day annotating data instead of writing the clever algorithms that is what they really want to do.

So what we did was that we built a team of librarians.

We named it Data Island.

And then we made sure that they were the ones that were going to label and annotate the data delivering to the machine learning team to make sure that every data scientist could actually spend the time on what they love the most, writing algorithms.

So we make sure that not only do we have an efficient allocation of work, we also make sure that people get to work with what they love.

They're all based in Copenhagen.

Yes, true.

I would actually have one guy in New York right now.

He just moved over there as we launched product to do some early market penetration, just to poke to the market, talk about partnerships, looking at early distribution.

Aki works actually better in English than it does in Danish.

We've known from the very beginning that we look outside Denmark.

The last business book I read?

The Lean Startup, I think.

It's quite a lot of people, actually.

Okay.

I do spend a lot of time with my peers in the Copenhagen Machine Learning Society to learn a lot from them.

But there probably wouldn't be CEOs that you know.

Right now, we use the most probably Slack.

Mmm, good question.
