Money, money, money 💸

Every business talks about passion, vision, and purpose… but at the end of the day, it all comes down to one thing: profit.

More clients. More sales. More growth. More money.

Because without the 💰, nothing scales. Big thanks to Thomas Hartmann for the amazing insights.

AI is moving beyond prompts and predictions. The next challenge is memory, adaptation, and evolving systems. 🧠

At Prow Conference 2026, we’re joined by Timmy Ghiurau, co-founder of MidBrain, where he’s building the memory and continual learning layer for AI agents.

With a background spanning Unity, Volvo Cars, The Eye Tribe (later acquired by Meta), and frontier AI research, Timmy works at the intersection of artificial intelligence, simulation, and human behavior.

His focus today: creating emotionally intelligent agents that learn from experience and evolve into long-term collaborators

From autonomous systems and innovation to investing in the future of technology across North and Eastern Europe, Timmy brings a perspective shaped by both deep technical work and startup ecosystem building. 🧱

Having data is powerful. Knowing how to tell the story behind it is what makes people listen.

One of the biggest mistakes in product and tech is assuming that numbers speak for themselves. They don’t. 🤨

You can have the right insights, the right metrics, and the right solution, but without clear communication and strong storytelling, your idea can still be ignored. 📊

And most importantly, when you adapt the story to your audience. Great product, people don’t just present dashboards.

What do you think matters more: the data itself or the way it’s communicated? 👇

Some teams don’t fail because they lack vision or skill. They fail because they don’t mean the same thing when they say the same words. 🧩

At PROW, Mihaela Draghici brings a perspective shaped by 15 years of building global B2B and B2C products across education, e-commerce, affiliate marketing, and automotive.

Working inside complex organisations, alongside engineering, design, business, and executive stakeholders, she kept seeing the same friction point: alignment breaks down not in strategy decks, but in how people interpret the work. 🔍

With a background in linguistics and product leadership, Mihaela focuses on what usually goes unnoticed, the language teams use, the assumptions they carry, and how meaning gets lost between functions.

Her work is about making that layer visible, so teams can move with clarity and make better product decisions, faster. 🪞
