SaaStock Local Barcelona: How to Fund and Grow a SaaS Business in 2024

Hosted by our SaaStock Local Barcelona City Leader, Vincent Jong, join us for an evening of insights and trends on funding and growing a SaaS business in today’s market.

The funding landscape has changed dramatically in the last few years and many founders are considering if they can do without a VC. How do you choose what is right for you and what are the steps to go either the bootstrapped or the funded path today?

To explore this, we have three amazing guests who will share their perspective:

  • André Bastié - CEO and Co-Founder at Happy Scribe, who successfully bootstrapped the business to €8M ARR
  • Philippe Gelis - CEO and Co-Founder at Kantox, who went the VC path and raised €30M before they sold to BNP Paribas
  • Oriol Juncosa - Founding Partner at Plus Partners, invested in over 75 companies and just announced a new fund with Letgo founder Enrique Linares

Aside from the funding journey we will also talk about how to grow a SaaS business today. The way your business is funded can impact the growth options you have available. So we’ll talk through how that played out in the different companies and what opportunities are available for SaaS businesses today.

After a moderated panel discussion there will also be an opportunity for questions from the audience. If you have any specific questions on your mind then that’s your chance, or find the speakers afterwards at the networking drinks. See you there!
