Product-Led-Growth: The growth framework that drives every durable startup
Growth isn't just about finding the right channels. It's about building the architecture that allows you to scale.
In this session, Alex Meredith breaks down the growth framework that drives every durable startup: Acquisition → Activation → Revenue → Retention → Referral with a product-led lens that most growth playbooks skip entirely. We'll cover why your product is your highest-leverage growth channel, and how the decisions you're making in onboarding, feature design, and monetization are either compounding your loop or quietly killing it.
We'll also get specific on AI: not the hype, but the concrete ways founders are using AI tools to accelerate each stage of the loop right now. From smarter acquisition targeting to Northstar metrics and retention analysis using unstructured data.
Come with your funnel. Leave with a framework that scales.
