Marlin Equity Partners hosted its annual European Product Development Summit, bringing together portfolio leaders for an engaging experience centered on collaboration, professional networking, and strategic innovation. The event focused on key themes such as product strategy, engineering for scale and security, and the transformative potential of generative AI. Thank you to our portfolio company CPOs, CTOs, and other executives who joined us. #CXOSummit
We were excited to welcome Chief Product Officers (CPOs), Chief Technology Officers (CTOs) and other product development leaders from our portfolio companies to this year’s Marlin Europe Product Development Summit earlier this month. The summit provided a mix of actionable insights, peer connections, and innovative ideas to help our leaders take their products and companies to the next level. This year, we focused on three key themes: 1. Product Strategy: How do top SaaS companies align their product strategies with business goals? With Bain & Company, we explored the critical roles of the CPO and CTO in strategy development, their interaction with the broader C-level team, and practical approaches to maintaining focus and achieving product-market fit, followed by interactive sessions on identifying customer pain points with Amazon Web Services (AWS). A case study from Gary Bennion at our portfolio company Haiilo provided insights into their successful approach. 2. Engineering for Scale and Security: How do you build secure, flexible products at scale? Unleash came to share best practices for feature management and how it can improve reliability and help scaling, while Zscaler explored how zero-trust architecture can strengthen product security without compromising usability. 3. Generative AI: What does GenAI mean for software development today? We explored cutting-edge applications and trends with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Seedcloud, and an impressive case study from Florian Gessner at our portfolio company TIS (Treasury Intelligence Solutions) showcased how GenAI is already transforming codebases—reducing development time and improving efficiency. The event combined insightful talks, hands-on sessions, and networking opportunities, creating a collaborative environment where ideas were exchanged freely, and participants left with actionable takeaways to implement in their own organizations. We’re proud to support our portfolio companies and their leaders by fostering opportunities to learn, connect, and innovate together. #SaaS #ProductDevelopment #CPO #CTO #AI #GenerativeAI #PrivateEquity #InnovationLeadership

Marlin Equity hosted its first Women in Leadership conference, Rise and Thrive, this week. We welcomed 50 incredibly talented professionals across the Marlin Equity Partners portfolio to share experiences, learn from each other, and build a community of like-minded professionals. Ana Clara Sabbag from Marlin Equity took the stage to kick-start the event setting the goal for the day: to reflect, to learn, to connect. The agenda that followed focused first on oneself, capabilities, and career challenges, and then on harnessing the power of relationships, with the afternoon being taken over by a leadership masterclass. Our partners that were invaluable to us include: Caroline Lo, Josefin Holmberg, Sam Molina, and David Winch from True Search sponsored the event and put together an insightful career discussion where they presented key topics, including capability versus track record and trends in the SaaS Market and invited some of our talented leaders Donna Torres and Sonia Boudier to take the stage for a lively career panel. Rachel Robinson from Napoleon Consulting Ltd followed with an energetic and engaging session on harnessing the power of relationships where group discussions shed light on relevant dynamics in relationship building. The morning ended with homework to continue building the community in the form of an exercise of give and take. The keynote guest of the afternoon was impressive London Business School professor Herminia Ibarra who ran a masterclass on acting like a leader and thinking like a leader where she covered the three main pillars of her thesis: redefining your job, expanding your network and stretching beyond your “natural” leadership style. The day concluded with a fun evening of playing darts. Congratulations Rebecca Keating on being the best dart player! A big thank you to our leaders and partners for setting the bar high for future events!
