Notion x CapitalT event

We teamed up with Notion Capital to bring together founders & investors at Soho House Amsterdam for an evening of insights, real talk, and invaluable lessons on scaling, fundraising, and AI’s impact on SaaS.

💡 We kicked off with:
🤖 Has AI eaten SaaS?—A deep dive into how AI is reshaping the industry.
📈 Leading & hiring through scale—How to build and sustain high-performing teams.

Then, we explored fundraising strategies in a panel with Vaayu, Overstory & Aikido, uncovering key lessons:

🔥 Fundraising Takeaways:
✅ Build relationships first—don’t rush to close your round.
✅ Know your investors as people, not just as funds.
✅ If an investor doesn’t get your business, that’s a red flag. 🚩
✅ Proactive investor updates = fewer questions, less stress.
✅ Convertible loans can be a smart way to spread out fundraising & delay valuation.
✅ Your co-founders are your biggest dilution—be strategic with your cap table!

💡 Scaling Beyond €100M+ in Revenue
The night’s highlight? Dutch unicorn founders Job van der Voort (Remote) & Matthijs Welle (Mews) took the stage to break down what it really takes to build a €100M+ revenue company.

Their success formula?
✅ Passion & resilience
✅ Fast learning & endless curiosity
✅ The ability to handle stress & make sacrifices—while still having fun 🔥

A huge thank you to Notion Capital for joining forces with us! We’re also looking forward to their upcoming SaaS Cloud Champions report, highlighting Europe’s most exciting tech companies.
