You know how some people say, āDonāt bragā? Well, today weāre making an exception. Because when Feedspot ranks you the No. 1 Startup Podcast in Germany, itās kind of rude notĀ to shout it from the rooftops, right? š£

š§ A Quick Reminder of Who We Are (In Case the Feedspot Glory Made You Forget)
Weāve been telling stories of startups before your favorite VC had a blue checkmark. We donāt chase trends ā we highlight the people creating them. From seed round survivors to Series B beasts, from Munich deep tech to Vienna fintech ā weāre there.
So when Feedspot handed us the gold medal for Germanyās top startup podcast, we werenāt surprised. But we wereĀ grateful. Especially since our interviews keep showing up in Google results for:

ā¦and other terms we may or may not whisper lovingly into Google Search Console at night š¤
š One Eye on DACH, the Other on Global
Yes, weāre big in Berlin. But also in Boston, Bangalore, and Buenos Aires. Because innovation isnāt local anymore. Itās distributed, like your favorite SaaS team. Startuprad.io is on track to becoming one of the Top 20 Global Podcasts in Entrepreneurship, and this recognition? Itās one more step.
