How do you attract top #GTM talent to your business? That in itself is a difficult question, and it becomes even trickier if you are based in a small market. So this morning, we (Ingrid, Mikael and Carole) headed to Oslo to, together with our brilliant co-hosts Arne Tonning and Bente Loe at Alliance VC, kick off the fall season of our series of CXO breakfasts. This time, diving deep into the topic “Hiring GTM talent as a Nordic company”. Thanks to our star panelists Fredrik Thomassen and Katherine Barrios who candidly shared their expertise and insights from both successes and mishaps throughout their careers, and to the room full of founders who got engaged in the conversation. This is what the breakfasts are all about – sparking conversation and learning from each other. PS Want to be sure to secure an invitation to the next breakfast? Let Carole know – we're planning the next ones in Copenhagen and London.

How should the UK compete with the US? Check out Oxx Co-founder and General Partner Richard Anton's perspective in hiw op ed in UK Tech News linked below. "If we do want to compete, however, the area in which we can truly make inroads is in private markets. Our tech sector is in a strong position: we have ample talent, excellent computer science universities and more local role-model entrepreneurs than ever before. To exploit that, it’s paramount that we foster access to capital on a private level."

TL;DR FUNNEL ACQUIRES ADTRIBA We’re happy to announce that Adtriba, the marketing measurement solution and our long-term partner, is now a part of Funnel! Some words from our Co-founder and CEO Fredrik Skantze: “It is one thing to offer clients data and information about their marketing spend; it is quite another to give them marketing intelligence. Add to this Adtriba’s proprietary, world-class measurement technology and this is a very powerful tool for marketers. At Funnel, we are bold in wanting to be the definitive Marketing Intelligence Platform. Through this acquisition, we are well on the way to achieving that goal. If our previous partnership with Adtriba is any indication, I am more than confident this deal will be a success. We are pleased to be welcoming Adtriba’s team to Funnel and we cannot wait to begin the integration of our technologies.” Read more about the acquisition at the link in the comments 💬

💡The 5th edition of Math meets B2B SaaS is out💡 Have you ever almost lost a friend over a game of #Monopoly, even if you’re not usually a sore loser? 🙋♀️ You’re not alone! It‘s because Monopoly is a zero-sum game, and zero-sum games are only fun if you‘re the winner! 🤼 If your customers also come across as sore losers during price negotiations, you might be framing the conversation as a zero-sum game 💸 😰 . But there’s a much better way! Curious to learn what it is? Welcome to the latest edition of “Math Meets B2B SaaS,” where I delve into how B2B SaaS companies can reframe price negotiations as positive sum games, and how this yields better returns for all those involved. 💰💰💰 Check out the article here: https://lnkd.in/dsEXmim4 #b2bSaaS #pricing #maths #gametheory #mathmeetsb2bsaas
