In this short promotional video, several founders and participants share their experiences working in the SaaStr CoSellingSpace, a collaborative workspace designed for SaaS startups. They highlight how the environment—surrounded by other high‑growth SaaS companies—helps founders learn faster, avoid common scaling mistakes, and benefit from a powerful network effect, likening their growth to being the average of their five closest startup peers. The speakers emphasize the value of direct, quick access to Jason Lemkin for advice, the presence of top‑tier speakers, executives, and resident founders, and the overall sense of belonging to a community of like‑minded entrepreneurs tackling the hard problem of building SaaS businesses. The tone is enthusiastic and testimonial, underscoring the space’s role in accelerating hyper‑growth for resident companies.

Chapters

Where we're going is here. We're being the best entrepreneurs in the entire world, including Antarctica. Instead of working in some crummy office in the Mission all alone, can work in a super nice space with a handful of other great SaaS companies and learn how to scale faster with fewer mistakes than they would on their own and help instantly turn them into the next hypergrowth SaaS company.
With startups that have the same mentality, and you are kind of like the average of your 5 best friends. Like, we are all the average of our 5 best friends. So think about it, you are the average of the 5 startups that you, that you deal with. So being with others, it's, it's very important, and that's something I missed when I moved here, not having a network like Jason will provide.
You do similar things, you can ask Jason a quick question, feel like you're truly part of something real.
It is incredible. I think it's such a great forum to get people together that are like minds trying to build SaaS companies. The thing that we're trying to do is hard. Building SaaS companies is hard.
All help, all the amazing speakers, amazing content, amazing executives and residents, but the best learning is being with other great founders at your stage. [MUSIC] [MUSIC]
