SPANVentures. presents, The Inflection Point, a panel.
2025 has tested even the strongest operators — from shifting investor expectations to saturated markets and longer sales cycles. But for the founders pushing through, something’s starting to click.
Join us for The Inflection Point, a founder-first conversation on what it truly takes to get from early traction to real momentum in today’s market.
We’re gathering bold founders, strategic investors, and high-leverage operators to share:
– The real moves that turned traction into growth
– What Q4 looks like from the frontlines
– Fundraising truths: who’s still cutting checks, and why
– What’s working across GTM, team building, and product velocity
This isn’t a post-mortem or a trend forecast — it’s a live breakdown of how breakout companies are being built in real time.
