How to Hack Growth on Social Media as an Early-Stage Founder

​Early-stage founders are constantly told to “grow faster”, but nobody tells them how.

​In this session, Haobo Zhang, founder of Polarbear, will unpack how he hacked social-first traction and turned virality into real business outcomes.

​Over the last few months, Polarbear has:

​- Hit 5M+ social views across TikTok & Instagram
- Built a 1750+ student community on Discord
- Secured their first paid B2B contract, with more pilots in the pipeline
- Validated a B2B2C bottom-up motion
- Went so viral they ended up on 7 News Australia

​We’ll break down the playbook behind that growth, the wins, the missteps, and how early-stage founders can pull it off without a big team or a big budget.
