PANEL: Navigating an exit
Navigating an Exit
11 September | Tech Open, Stockholm
When is the right time to sell the company you’ve spent years building?
An exit can be one of the biggest moments in a founder’s journey, but deciding when to sell, what the company is really worth, and whether a deal is actually the right one is rarely straightforward.
Founders, investors and buyers can have very different perspectives on timing, valuation and what a successful exit looks like.
Join Tahero Nori (Techbuddy), Sara Serray (Wellibites), Alexis Kopylov (DBT), and Maria Lindholm (Wellstreet) for a candid conversation about navigating the exit process, from the first conversations and negotiations to signing the deal and figuring out what comes next.
What we'll discuss
Together, we'll explore:
How founders know when it might be the right time to sell
What actually drives valuation during an exit

What founders wish they had known before selling
