Скачать или смотреть The First Customer - Empowering Tech Founders to Build Successful Companies with Vladimir Baranov

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Vladimir Baranov, CEO and founder of Human Interfaces.

Vladimir had early exposure to the turbulent Russian business climate, which made him cautious about entrepreneurship, but his experiences in the U.S. gradually changed his perspective. In college, he created a textbook-sharing platform, an early taste of entrepreneurship, though without charging users. Later, he ventured into finance, spending over a decade in capital markets before transitioning to startups. His first major success came when he co-founded a wealth management tech company, which scaled to 150 employees and was eventually acquired by Franklin Templeton. This experience fueled his passion for entrepreneurship and led him to explore the aerospace industry, despite having no formal background in it.

After helping grow an aerospace startup and successfully launching multiple satellites, Vladimir felt the pull toward something broader—coaching. Recognizing that many engineers and scientists struggled to bring their innovations to market, he founded Human Interfaces to help bridge that gap. Now a business coach, Vladimir focuses on empowering tech founders, engineers, and scientists to build successful companies. His marketing approach is continually evolving, relying on a mix of in-person networking, coaching platforms, LinkedIn outreach, and SEO strategies.

Check out this episode of The First Customer where Vladimir Baranov ensures his message resonates with the right audience by blending his experience in aerospace, finance, and business coaching to help tech founders succeed!
