Lessons in Scaling Weavr to 100+ People in 3 Years

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show, our host Alex Theuma
is joined by Alex Mifsud, co-founder & CEO at Weavr, who shares
his lessons in scaling Weavr to 100+ people in 3 years. "Try to
imagine what the ideal, sort of, embedded finance equation of
skills and capabilities would be for B2B SaaS businesses not to
have to worry about all the complexities of financial services. We
work backwards from that. We specifically identified skills that we
need - it's like building a football team, you can't just have a
great goalie, you've got to have the scorer, you've got to have the
midfield players, and you're curating a lot of that. And yet, you
also have to make them work as a team." Alex shares: - His role
setting up the Malta Internet foundation in the early days of the
internet - How Ixaris used the €80B grant from EU Horizon Program
to build what is now called Embedded Finance - Why Weavr is being
frugal with how they deploy their $50 million worth of capital
(majority of which is still in the business) - Delivering success
with a smaller team = higher engagement x less communication
overheads - How Weavr's building performance frameworks that serve
a higher purpose and more! --- Check out the other ways SaaStock is
