Inflection Point: From Startup to Scale-Up Success

Wednesday, September 17
10:00 – 11:15 AM

Panel Discussion with Q&A

Downtown Denver Polsinelli Office
1401 Lawrence Street, Suite 2300
Denver, CO 80202

What got you to $5M won’t get you to $50M.
Every successful startup eventually hits a wall—when the founder hustle, informal processes, and “figure it out as we go” mentality stops working.
Join our panel of battle-tested leaders for an honest discussion about transforming your startup into a scalable, sustainable business. Our seasoned operators will share real-world experiences upgrading four critical areas that determine whether companies thrive or struggle to scale-up.
What We’ll Cover:
- People: How to evolve from “chief everything officer” to strategic CEO, build your second-in-command, and bring in professional financial leadership without breaking the bank.
- Process: Transform from spreadsheet chaos to professional monthly closes, create cash flow predictability, and build scalable workflows that work when you’re not in the room.
- Systems: Evaluate your tools, integrate your tech stack for real-time visibility, and build dashboards that actually drive decisions.
- Mindset: Shift from working IN the business to working ON it, develop financial sophistication for strategic decision-making, and view upgrades as investments rather than costs.
Who Should Attend:
Founders, CEOs, and leaders of $5M+ revenue companies who recognize their current systems won’t support growth ambitions and are ready to invest in scalable infrastructure.
