Hey SaaS Fans

SaaStr Annual @ Home is quickly approaching, and we're now < 30 days away from the biggest B2B SaaS event on the planet! This year, as we're shifting everything virtual, we're reintroducing one of our most popular programs in a digital format: Meet a VC.

If you haven't heard, we're giving Founders and CEOs the chance to host 1:1 virtual meetings with a hand-picked group of elite VCs. Whether you're an established player raising A-B-C-D's, waiting to be acquired, or raising a seed round— our Meet a VC program will give you an extra boost of visibility to the world's premiere investors you've always wanted to meet.

Don't wait — secure your VIP tickets and submit your startup now for this program as we'll be sending the first round of startups to VCs on August 15th! If a VC is interested, they'll reach out to you directly to schedule a time to meet during Annual. Good luck!
