For the 8th year in a row, we’ve expanded our Equality, Inclusion and Balance program.
We are proud that the 2023 SaaStr Annual featured a combined 60% women and multicultural speakers and have had over 60% women and multicultural speakers at each SaaStr Annual since 2018, and we hope to do even better in 2024!
Our core goals and values at SaaStr include:
-
Putting on the most inclusive events in the industry and
-
Being as inclusive a community as possible.
We believe that true innovation depends on hearing from, meeting with, and listening to people with a variety of perspectives and diverse backgrounds. We want our events, and the community and companies who participate in them, to include, encourage, and recognize people of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, abilities, religions, sexual orientations, and military service.
To support those goals, among other initiatives, we offer 1,500+ VIP Equality + Inclusion Passes a year at no cost.
This week is the last chance to apply.
These VIP passes include full access to 2024 SaaStr Annual. They also include priority access to our mentorship and CEO <-> VC matchmaking programs at no cost.
Please note: the program has experienced a significant uptick in abusers and folks applying that do not qualify. If you are not selected, please understand we’ve done our best — and apply again next year if you qualify.
A confirmation email will be sent if selected
