In discussion with Stephen Chandler, Managing Partner at Notion we reflect on on the biggest lessons he’s learned through the start up, grow up and scale up journey, as a co-founder at MessageLabs and as an investor in more than 50 B2B SaaS companies. Batch 2, episode 0.

- Why the start-up founder is part Pathfinder, part Viking.

- Using time and capital efficiently are the most important factors in the early stages.

- Why and how capabilities and leadership teams change as the business moves from startup to grow up.

- Why the grow up phase is the real hard yards.

- Why founders need self awareness to grow and evolve

- The founder journey - from viking to company builder to conductor.

- A great and inspirational team, addressing a large and exciting market opportunity, this is what I look for in my investments.
