A Methodical Approach To Building A SaaS Company: Celigo CEO Jan Arendtsz

A Methodical Approach To Building A SaaS Company: Celigo CEO Jan Arendtsz

Welcome to the GrowthCap podcast where we chat with CEOs, investors, and other key industry leaders to uncover insights and strategies for accelerating growth and succeeding in business. I am your host RJ Lumba.

In this episode we chat with Jan Arendtsz, a former corporate software professional turned entrepreneur. Unlike many of today’s startup founders, Jan took a more methodical approach to founding and ultimately building his company, Celigo.

Celigo simplifies the integration of business applications and data sources in the enterprise. Its integration Platform-as-a-Service or iPaaS solution allows both technical and business users to connect applications together quickly through an industry-leading guided user interface. Based in San Mateo, California, Celigo is backed by growth equity.

In setting out as a software entrepreneur, Jan first identified a distinct need in the market through his client engagements as an IT services provider. He then began gradually transitioning to developing a software product while ensuring a true product-market fit.

As we hear from Jan, building a company is not easy but with passion and a single-minded focus, one can overcome the inevitable challenges which accompany the entrepreneurial journey.

We hope you enjoy the show.
