SaaStanak Skopje #4 — More than a salary: ESOP in practice

​📣 We’re back in Skopje for our 4th SaaStanak meetup, bringing together SaaS founders, builders, and marketers for an evening of learning and good conversation.

​​This time, we’re diving into a topic that rarely gets the spotlight in our region: Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs). We'll cover what they actually look like in practice, how they’re implemented, and why they’re becoming a real lever for retention and performance in SaaS teams.
