SaaStanak #2 Kranj 🇸🇮
📣 SaaStanak #2 Kranj
SaaStanak is back in Kranj with two speakers with real experience building and scaling SaaS and the same great crowd from last time! Come hang out and learn what it takes to build products that click with customers and succeed in unique industries.
🎙️ Hosted by Kovačnica & SaaStanak
We're taking SaaStanak back to Kranj for another evening of real founder stories! This time, we're digging into product discovery done right and AI in markets that most software companies still ignore.
Joining us are Simon Tratnik and Marko Hozjan, two builders who've fought and solved real product and market problems: one figuring out how to make products resonate with customers, the other spotting SaaS opportunities in industries that barely use spreadsheets yet. Come for the talks, stay for the networking after 🧡
Speakers
Simon Tratnik, Co-founder & CPO @ HolyShift, Founder @ Human1st
– Simon is building an AI platform that validates product ideas against real buyer signals from communities like LinkedIn, Reddit, and HackerNews. Through Human1st, he's spent years facilitating product strategy with teams globally.
Marko Hozjan, Co-founder & CEO at LynxCraft
– Marko is building LynxCraft, an all-in-one cloud platform that automates design, documentation, and supply chain for real estate investors. He's done four exits before this one and closed an oversubscribed pre-seed in 2025.
Why join
✅ Hear experiences from founders operating in messy, underserved markets
✅ Hang out with a crowd that showed up to learn (not pitch)
✅ Network with SaaS folks from the region and beyond
About the host
Kovačnica is Kranj's entrepreneurial hub, built from the ground up by a group of young locals in 2015 who convinced the municipality to give them an old post office. Today it's the central innovation space for the Gorenjska region: a coworking space, startup incubator, and a place where 80+ events happen every year.
