Hr: Prosinac je u Zagrebu.
En: It's December in Zagreb.
Hr: Snijeg prekriva ulice, a zrak je ispunjen mirisom kuhanog vina i pečenih kestena.
En: Snow covers the streets, and the air is filled with the scent of mulled wine and roasted chestnuts.
Hr: Božićne lampice svijetle svuda oko incubatora gdje Luka, mladi poduzetnik, započinje svoj dan.
En: Christmas lights shine all around the incubator where Luka, a young entrepreneur, starts his day.
Hr: Ulica je prepuna ljudi koji nose darove i smiju se, dok se unutra svi spremaju za veliki dan.
En: The street is full of people carrying gifts and laughing, while inside, everyone is getting ready for the big day.
Hr: Luka stoji u zajedničkoj prostoriji startup inkubatora.
En: Luka stands in the common room of the startup incubator.
Hr: Oko njega je gužva, ljudi žure prema svojim stolovima, kreativnost je u zraku.

En: Competition is fierce.
Hr: Luka pogleda kroz velike prozore i na trenutak osjeti sumnju.
En: Luka looks through the large windows and for a moment feels doubt.
Hr: "Bi li trebao promijeniti svoj pristup?
En: "Should I change my approach?"
Hr: " pita Marka.
En: he asks Marko.
Hr: "Možda bih trebao naglasiti profit?
En: "Maybe I should emphasize profit?"
