Ten years ago, raising €1 million in Copenhagen was enough to make waves in the region’s tech scene. Today, the Nordics are turning out billion-dollar companies like Lovable — which hit $200M in revenue just 12 months after launching.    Dennis Green-Lieber, founder of AI-powered customer intelligence platform Propane, has had a front-row seat to that shift over the last 15 years. His take? The region's social safety net gives founders room to take real swings without putting their personal lives on the line, and they're accelerating faster than Silicon Valley as a result.    Today on TechCrunch's Equity podcast, Dominic-Madori Davis caught up with Green-Lieber to talk about the Nordic startup ecosystem, from its collaborative culture to its deep tech future.  Listen to the full episode to hear about:   How Danish founders can access free quantum computing power and what that means for the region's deep tech ambitions  Why the cultural shift from "don't stick your neck out" is creating a new generation of globally ambitious founders  The hidden problem AI tools are creating for startups that can now ship products in days instead of months  Subscribe to Equity on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts.
