What a 30 to 50 Percent Lower Cost Actually Means for Your Runway
Do the math, then decide.
It's easy to treat "lower cost" as a vague selling point. It's more useful to treat it as runway.
A four-person senior team that costs €14,000 less per month than its Western European equivalent isn't just cheaper - it's an extra €168,000 a year that can go toward another hire, more product experiments, or simply a longer runway before your next raise.
Numbers like that are worth running for your own team size and seniority mix before you finalize next year's hiring budget.
