What Breaks at Scale - A Closed Founder Discussion
A candid discussion on the realities and trade-offs of scaling
Scaling a company introduces a different set of challenges, less visible, harder to diagnose, and often unique to each stage.
This session is designed for founders and senior leaders who are actively building and navigating that reality.
This is a discussion grounded in what’s actually happening inside companies right now — not theory, not frameworks.
where growth is becoming harder to sustain
what’s not working as expected
which decisions are creating real leverage — and which aren’t
