I’m Christian Hassold, host of the In/organic Podcast. I’ve spent 24 years building and leading SaaS companies. When my last company was acquired in 2017, I was presented with the opportunity to build the M&A function from scratch inside a $130 million public company. Though I had led or been a part of more than a dozen multi-million dollar inorganic and indirect growth drivers over my career, this opportunity brought conviction that I had found my new calling. Today, I lead corporate and business development for CommerceIQ, a Silicon Valley unicorn backed by Insight, Softbank, and Madrona Ventures. I also advise private equity investors on potential acquisitions in the commerce enablement space. On the In/organic Podcast, I open source my learnings on mergers and acquisitions, indirect partnerships, and international expansion to my listeners in hopes I can help those who follow me avoid common mistakes and double down on winning business development strategies that can accelerate growth and find the fastest path to the right outcome. Join me and my guests on this journey to be a tide that rises all the boats in hyper-growth SaaS companies.
