About This Conference

Ascent 2022 in NYC

Ascent 2022 NYC launched as a SaaS conference designed for founders and operators in the thick of scaling their businesses. Held in New York City, the event tapped into the city's vibrant SaaS ecosystem — a growing counterweight to Silicon Valley — bringing together founders from across the East Coast and beyond for focused sessions on growth, operations, and fundraising.

Scaling Playbooks from the Trenches

The inaugural Ascent program featured founders who had recently crossed key ARR milestones sharing their scaling playbooks in real time. Sessions covered hiring your first VP of Sales, building customer success from scratch, navigating the Series A to Series B gap, and managing the operational complexity that comes with rapid team growth. The emphasis was on recent, lived experience rather than retrospective wisdom.

NYC's SaaS Ecosystem

New York City's growing reputation as a SaaS hub made it an ideal home for Ascent 2022. The city's concentration of enterprise buyers, financial services firms, and media companies creates unique go-to-market opportunities for SaaS founders. Attendees explored how proximity to these industries shapes product development, sales motions, and partnership strategies.
