Like SaaS stock is kind of everywhere, you know, online.

And so he had to come down and, you know, see it for himself.

And he really enjoyed the events and, you know, we'll be coming back this year.

But I think, so that was kind of one thing pre-event, like during the event.

So we did the bootstrap stage for the first time.

And that was, I think, long overdue, right?

Because SaaS stock is really well known, I think, you know, for being this event where you've got a ton of SaaS investors and you go there and

You're going to meet an investor, whether it's sort of pre-seed through to growth stage.

And now, obviously, we've got alternative funding as well, sort of revenue-based funding providers as well, right?

But you've got a ton of VCs, and we're known for getting connected and just doing meetings to learn about how you can fund your SaaS.

But we also have always had this sort of small-ish, I would say, bootstrap contingent that's probably not been that well served through the content.

Because if you look at the scale stage and the growth stage, almost everybody is venture-backed.

So that's on those stages, right?

So we decided at the bootstrap stage last year for the first time, you guys found a path that we're heavily involved in that.

And it was great.

And we got people like, you know, Stefan Smulders was up there sort of speaking.

$8 million in revenue now.

Yeah.

And we had Mahanad from Hotjar.

You know, they were, well, I don't know, $40, $50 million or whatever.
