Smartlead x Pump: Scaling Without Scaling Headcount

​Smartlead and Pump are bringing together founders and operators who have actually scaled sales, infra, and support without ballooning headcount, for a candid roundtable at Pump's SF office.

​No stage, no script. Just an open conversation on what to automate first, what is still worth a human, and what fast-growing SaaS startups get wrong about scaling lean.

​Stick around after for Q&A, good food, and good conversation.

​On the panel:

• ​Vaibhav, Founder, Smartlead

• ​Spandana, Founder, Pump

• ​Yasser, CEO, Chatbase

• ​Michael Buckwald, COO, Pump.co (previously co-founded Leap Motion)

​The details:

​📅 Wednesday, October 7, 2026
🕓 4:00 to 7:00 PM PT
📍 Pump HQ, San Francisco

​We're keeping this one small, just 35 spots, so RSVP to hold your place.
