About Go Group
About
A group of ambitious technology people who have been working together for 5+ years on different projects and companies. Over the past few years, we have built companies and products from scratch. This has given us an opportunity to get our hands dirty on all aspects and life cycles of technology creation. Being through so many ups and downs together, bonds within our team members have moved beyond just office and all of us take great pride in being friends with each other.
We build technology. One product at a time. We have our expertise in building fully owned independent teams for our partners in Europe. Please notice the word - partners. Yes, we don’t work with ‘clients’. We work as partners.
We love technology and products alike and believe that none of them are as powerful alone as they are together. That is why we have a strong say in how we build products with our partners. We collaboratively decide with our partners on whom to hire, which technology to use and how to deliver the product.
