Insights from SaaS North We’re back from SAAS NORTH Conference, Canada’s premier gathering for fast-scaling founders and their teams. The event was a hotbed of innovation, bringing together the brightest minds in SaaS. Trust, technology, and talent: this trifecta is shaping the future of AI and business. Here are the three critical questions every business leader should be asking today: 1. How do we build trust with Gen AI?
 Reliability, ethics, and usability are at the core of this emerging tech. The key to trust is ensuring transparency in data use, creating robust guardrails, and showcasing real-world reliability in day-to-day operations. 2. How do you future-proof your product? Staying ahead means thinking ahead. Develop solutions that not only solve today’s problems but anticipate your customers' future needs. Focus on innovation that keeps your product indispensable in an ever-evolving market. 3. How do you find the right talent in an oversaturated market? With job postings drawing hundreds of applicants, finding the perfect match can feel impossible. But the answer isn’t just more filters—it’s smarter screening and creative approaches to talent scouting. The right hire might just be the one who brings a fresh, unconventional perspective. Until next time, Ottawa! Mike Tvaronas #SaaSNorth #SaaS #SaaSTech

These days, 83% of software developers say they’re experiencing burnout. The key to ensuring work-life balance while still delivering on your tech roadmap? Adequate resourcing. However, in the U.S., the median time-to-hire for a single engineering role is 41 days, according to Paraform. The impact of extended time-to-hire, not only on productivity but also on team morale, cannot be overstated. Software engineers thrive — and stick around — in working environments where innovation and creativity are the norm. Which, ultimately, is only possible when basic resourcing needs are met. By integrating nearshore talent, companies can proactively confront today’s talent crises, reducing turnover costs and enhancing overall team satisfaction and performance. Check out our new white paper to learn why nearshoring is an effective way to fill critical talent gaps at scale — and how to take that first step to get there. #TechHiring #Nearshore #TechTalent
