Runway began within art school, with a sparse network and little investor insight into AI video. HolyWater Tech started in Kyiv with no venture capital, and a mandate to be profitable from day one.
Seven years later, both have succeeded in disrupting, and putting some level of fear in, creative industries worldwide. At this StrictlyVC Athens 2026 discussion, host and TechCrunch Editor-in-Chief Connie Loizos brought both on stage to get the inside story of how these two breakout companies actually broke out.
Featuring:
Anastasis Germanidis: Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Runway
Anatolii Kasianov: Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Holy Water Tech
Recorded live at StrictlyVC Athens 2026, presented in partnership with Endeavor Greece.
