What does it really take to grow a startup from early traction to millions in revenue? And what starts breaking when growth accelerates?

On November 5, Startup Grind Yerevan and STAN are bringing you a practical conversation with Stephane Boghossian, Head of Growth at HAQQ Legal AI, former growth executive at Lovable and Brainboard, and angel investor with 50+ startup investments.

Having helped scale fast-growing technology companies and invested in startups including Anthropic, Revolut, and Collibra, Stephane brings a unique perspective from both sides of the table: the operator building growth and the investor evaluating it.

We'll discuss: This won't be another conversation about growth theories. Expect practical insights, real examples, and an open Q&A.

• What really drives early-stage growth and how to find repeatable growth channels

• Moving from initial traction to scalable revenue

• Growth strategies and tactics that actually work

• What breaks when startups scale — from teams and processes to acquisition channels

• The mistakes founders make when trying to grow too fast

• What investors look for in startups with strong growth potential

Whether you're a founder looking for your next growth breakthrough or already navigating the challenges of scaling, this conversation is for you.
