#3 FGC Roundtable with Karsten Rendemann (Online)

THIS ACTIVITY HAS BEEN POSTPONED - MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW.

Things I Wish I’d Known Before Scaling a SaaS Company to 200 People

Join me, Karsten Rendemann, founder of Cookie Information, for a candid and practical session on what it really takes to grow a B2B SaaS company from one person and an idea to hundreds of employees and a successful exit.

This is not a polished success story — it’s a behind-the-scenes look at the hard decisions, lucky breaks, and painful lessons that shaped the journey. Expect insights that go beyond startup clichés — with real stories about:

• Finding true product–market fit in a crowded space
• Scaling from founder-led sales to repeatable growth
• Hiring and firing (sometimes even friends and family) to protect your company’s DNA
• Building culture and systems without losing speed
• Shifting from founder to CEO — and staying sane in the process
• Getting the big EXIT in sight.

If you’re building or scaling a SaaS business, this session will give you field-tested lessons — not theory — from someone who’s lived it.

Date: Friday, November 21
Time: 13-14:00
