When and How to Effectively Use Partnerships to Scale and Enter New Channels

Business Development at early stage startups and mid stage startups (Series A-Series B) can be challenging. Between opportunity trade-offs, distractions, unproductive deals, outsize impacts on product roadmap, making mistakes while ramping up business development can be costly. In this recorded session, startups will learn how to recognize when to press “go” on their startup’s BD function, when to build out a team, and what to consider when evaluating early stage partnership deals.
