From Growth Hacking to Lasting Impact: Lessons from Founders on Building at Scale

Growth is no longer about quick wins or “hacks.” Today, it’s about stacking smart channels, experimenting with intent, and building community and culture into the product itself.

That was the core message of a candid panel conversation featuring early-stage founders and industry veterans—Roby John from SuperGaming, Eve Halimi from Alinea Invest, and Ken Sasaki from VIZ Media—moderated by Eros Resmini from the Mini Fund, who previously helped build Discord from the ground up.

Across a fast-paced, insight-packed session, the panel explored what growth means today, where to find untapped opportunities, how to hire the right talent, and how to avoid the most common mistakes startups make on the road to scale.
