In this episode of QSBS Solved, Brady is joined by Alex Shartsis, CEO of Silverwood and founder of Skyp.ai. Alex brings a rare blend of experience advising founders on growth, go-to-market strategy, and M&A, while also building and scaling his own ventures. Together, they dive into the realities of scaling a company toward an exit, how to think about dilution and valuations, and why building a strong go-to-market motion is the foundation of successful M&A outcomes. You can also find a link to Alex’s Seed to Sequoia newsletter below these episode notes.

Alex also shares lessons from his own founder journey, including what makes or breaks a deal, the dangers of focusing too much on tax optimization at the wrong stage, and how AI is reshaping both outbound sales and acquisition strategy.
