A Look Inside the Biggest Business Event in the Balkans
Biznis Priče brought together the brightest entrepreneurs, operators, and leaders across the Balkans. Over two inspiring days, there were powerful talks, hands-on workshops, and insightful conversations focused on leadership, branding, sales.
Below are the standout sessions and unforgettable moments from the event.
We talk a lot about fear of failure—but almost never about fear of success. What happens when things go right? Will the people around me change? Will they want something from me? Will I still belong? A powerful talk that challenged how we think about ambition and self-sabotage.
This was the strongest talk of the event. Petar explained how, in every company, people either act like players or victims. Great leaders don’t force change—they guide people through it.
From Salesforce to founding a $20M startup, Drew shared how his career has been shaped by one core idea: someone you know knows the person you need to meet.
Instead of cold outreach, build real networks. Find the expert. Collaborate. Don’t start from scratch when someone else has already done the work.
The Serbian national basketball coach shared what leadership looks like in sport—and how it translates to business. One line stuck with me: “The coach isn’t the star. The coach makes stars.” That’s what true leadership is.
A strong talk that made me rethink brand building. Three questions I’m still asking myself:
Her story was a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out. Even when investors rejected their idea to rent out Snoo, she and her team stuck with it. That one bet now brings in serious revenue.
A practical discussion on how to turn customers into advocates. You don’t need a massive ad budget—just a smart system that rewards people who genuinely like what you do.
Strong, real advice on scaling. Always worth listening to.
This was the most powerful session for me. Edin talked about thinking beyond the business and instead creating an ecosystem—a space where customers, team members, and partners want to stick around. He also hit on something I deeply believe: sales and client segmentation are not “add-ons”—they are the engine.
We talked about shifting how we think under stress, finding space in high-pressure moments, and using breath to get calm and focused when it counts.
This one was more about the strategy behind sales. Strong positioning + clear marketing + consistent messaging = sales that come in more predictably.
The talks were sharp, the people were open, and the energy in the room felt real. No hype, just honest lessons.
I’ll definitely be there again next year—and if you’re building something of your own, you should be too.
Next year’s dates are already announced: April 16–17, 2025. Let’s meet there.
Behind every event we attend, there’s a spark. A conversation that shifts perspective. A story that sticks. These are the ones worth revisiting.
Not just another SaaS conference. SaaSiest Amsterdam 2025 wasn’t about chasing the next AI trend or finding a shortcut to scale. It was about depth. It was about conversations that went beyond growth hacks and explored what real, sustainable SaaS growth looks like today. No fluff. No endless jargon. Just founders, operators, and curious minds
This year’s event focused on the future of leadership in a rapidly changing business landscape. Speakers and panelists shared strategies on: The conference featured keynote talks, interactive panels, and networking opportunities, giving participants practical insights and fresh perspectives they could take back to their organizations.

When Smart Hires Still Go Sideways I spoke about something I’ve learned the hard way:I’ve hired smart people and still ended up with the wrong fit. Not because they lacked experience or couldn’t do the job — but because we didn’t click where it mattered: in how we think, make decisions, handle pressure, or solve
