From a $1,500 Credit Card Loan to a $7M Raised
🔊 In this episode of Default Global, I chat with Ivan Burazin, Co-Founder & CEO of Daytona, to learn more about his amazing story.
Ivan discusses how he established CodeAnywhere on a shoestring, turned the SHIFT Developer Conference into one of Europe's largest gatherings with over 5,000 attendees, and made $7 million for Daytona in only 16 months.
Daytona’s open-source project has already garnered 9,500+ GitHub stars, and their enterprise tool is gaining traction with dozens of customers.
Key Takeaways:
- How Ivan secured funding from over 60 investors after holding 460 meetings.
- Techniques to help developers who have the appropriate tools increase their productivity by 56%.
- Quick tips on how to grow pre-seed and seed rounds, such as how Daytona raised $300K in 3 days and received $1 million more than it asked for.
- Why Ivan thinks DevTools are ready to grow: they are at the center of both SaaS and AI progress.
- The mental and strategic tricks he used to get investors to fear missing out and close his round.
This episode is full of big numbers and actionable ideas that will help you decide what to do next, whether you want to start from scratch, grow, or raise millions of dollars.
