About

Filip Valica

I build the commercial architecture for industrial operators and technical founders.

Space City Growth is a one-person commercial advisory practice. Engineering discipline applied to commercial decisions. Is the product priced wrong, or is the channel eating the margin before it gets there? Is the go-to-market broken at the strategy level, or does it just need help executing? Typically, assessments have a fixed scope and a fixed deliverable. If the work goes well, some clients continue with ongoing advisory.
