Today on the show, we welcome Alexander Theuma, founder of SaaStock and general partner at BackFuture VC. In this episode, Alexander dives deep into the shifting SaaS landscape, exploring how AI is redefining capital efficiency, company structure, and startup strategy.
We discuss how VC trends are evolving, the rise of M&A and SaaS consolidation, and how lean, AI-powered startups are replacing bloated headcounts. Alexander also shares the lessons he’s learned from running SaaStock for over a decade and how his unique vantage point shapes the way he backs early-stage founders.
