My Dinner with Practical SaaS Founders in New York City

by | Mar 17, 2023

I hosted a dinner with 15 founders last night at the SaaSOpen conference in New York.

After an hour of great conversation, I realized I was talking with founders from Poland, France, India, and Tel Aviv at my table.

Other tables included founders from UK, Sweden, New York, Toronto, Dallas, Boston, and a few more founders from India.

Different growth stages, backgrounds, ages, funding approaches, and personalities.

All “crazy” adventurers with real businesses and amazing teams.

Like old friends from a common neighborhood, but we each came from around the globe.

Zoom and online conferences are good, but I don’t think you can create this level of connection so quickly without being in person. 

We’re still people.
