Here’s a video interview I did with Vinny Lingham in the DemoPit at the TechCrunch40 conference last month. Vinny was at the conference demoing Synthasite, a web-based web site builder.

I also asked Vinny, whose company is based in South Africa, about some of the challenges of building a tech company outside of Silicon Valley:

The US is not the only market in this world. You’ve got 6 billion people in this world. Focus on multiple languages, multiple currencies in your application. Really try to globalize your business, because in that way you’re not dependent on one particular market to make your business a success.

Synthasite launches its beta on November 5th.
