Cervenka points to an early moment in the company’s history, when it was set up inside an incubator and equipped with a grant from Google. At the time, Cervenka was also grappling with securing a visa to properly conduct his business.

However, getting past these obstacles helped the CEO develop a thicker skin and become more familiar with the difficulties of running a startup.
