This is a moment that, in my opinion, Poland should be incredibly proud of. Two friends. An $11 billion valuation. Four years of hard work. Today, they’ve built one of Europe’s top two AI giants. And this June, they’re coming home to share their story with all of you. Mati Staniszewski and Piotr Dąbkowski. Best friends since their days at Copernicus High School in Warsaw. Four years ago, they started building something very few people believed in. To be honest, I didn't believe in it either. Today, ElevenLabs is valued at $11 billion and is recognized as the global leader in AI voice agents. Their technology reaches over a billion people worldwide. A billion. I’m writing that out because the scale is just mind-blowing. The world's top VC funds are backing them, along with NVIDIA, the most valuable company on the planet. Their client list includes heavy hitters like Meta, Cisco, and Revolut. They were the first in the world to break the realism barrier in AI-generated voice, doing so in 70 languages and consistently beating out giants like Google and OpenAI. They’ve graced the cover of Forbes and were named to Time’s list of the most influential people in AI. What’s even more impressive? The core of their R&D happens right here in Warsaw. Poles hold pivotal roles at ElevenLabs—shoutout to Maciej Mylik, Anna Chrzanowska-Kovacs, Mateusz Kopeć, and Marcin Jeleński. Beyond the tech, these guys are fully invested in the Polish ecosystem. They are the lead partners for the AI Master’s program at the University of Warsaw and sponsors of the National Olympiads in Informatics and AI. They are actively lifting brilliant Polish talent onto the global stage. On June 1st, Warsaw will become a major European tech hub. The Teatr Wielki will host the biggest event in ElevenLabs' history—following their massive shows in San Francisco and London. We’re talking nearly 2,000 people: the biggest names in tech, business, and government. The future of voice starts here. I’ll be doing everything I can to be there, and I highly encourage you to do the same. Link to apply is below in comment. Seats are extremely limited, and the event is primarily geared toward the business community. @matiii @dabkowski_piotr —pure class. Nothing but pride.
