How Startups Get Started

A conversation with first-hires and founder-followers who have started-up startups!

Hosted by Margaret Roth Falzon, Squadra Ventures

There’s more to a startup than the founder, there’s the people that actually start it up! Director of Product Marketing, CRO, Sales Engineer, Project Manager, BDR. Behind every founder is a team of operators that you’ve never heard from. This is the panel for the execution-obsessed, whether you are exploring a career pivot to early-stage companies or seeking learnings to help move forward in an existing role. For those considering working at startups, the panel will detail the transition into a startup and how to harness a background from any field so that you are positioned to become a key contributor to a great team. For those who already work in startups, panelists will offer a look at how to build the processes that set lean teams up for outsized success and blaze a trail for personal growth in these emerging career paths.

This panel will show that you don’t have to be the founder of a company to write the next great startup story!
