Built the largest SaaS community in Central & Eastern Europe. Organizes premier events featuring real founder stories of scaling from $0-10M ARR. Connects SaaS companies and leaders across the CEE region through community-driven experiences.
Leonard Eldić built Saastanak into Central Europe's largest SaaS community by focusing on real growth stories from founders who scaled from $0 to $10M ARR. Leonard realized that most startup events share theory while founders need practical playbooks from people who actually built successful companies. This insight shaped how Saastanak operates.
Through Saastanak, Leonard Eldić organizes events where successful SaaS founders share their actual growth strategies, revenue models, and scaling challenges. His community connects 5,000+ SaaS professionals across CEE and has become the primary networking hub for the region's fastest-growing software companies under Eldić's leadership.
How do you build a community where members actually help each other succeed? Find out from Leonard how to create a strong community where successful founders are vulnerable and honest about their success and challenges.
Join Leonard Eldić at How to Web Conference 2025 to learn community-building strategies that accelerate business growth.
