Growing your business and career have never been more complex and competitive.

The right technology, technique, tool, or talented executive can be the difference between your company being the category killer or roadkill.

Finding that edge isn’t easy. Technology is moving at an ever-increasing pace; marketing techniques that worked last year are now antiquated; and the tools that drove efficiency in the last decade are now slowing companies down.

Companies are competing for elite talent on a global basis, and it's only getting more difficult to find the right people—the game changers—post-pandemic.

News, knowledge, network
We provide newsletters, how-to guides, events, and an online community to help founders and executives find their edge: solving business challenges, discovering new opportunities, and finding answers to questions they don't know to ask.
Our 14 newsletters keep readers up to date on trends, tactics, and competition. They include feature stories and how-to guides for executives to refine their skills and build their talent stack.

We’re also a nexus for entrepreneurial discussion, hosting online events with top investors, founders, CEOs, service providers, and thinkers. Our Slack community hosts more than 3,750 executives—as well as our analysts, researchers, and writers—and informs our upcoming content.

Built on a powerful,
one-of-a-kind platform

We built from scratch a proprietary newsletter management system (NMS) called Barboza. This NMS is one of our most powerful assets, supporting content creation and advertising management across our entire network of newsletters. In time, it will support our community and event products as well.

The Inside.com Slack community is our most recent product. More than 3,750 users (as of September 2021) participate with our research team in a dozen active channels.

We have channels dedicated to topics like VC, AI, crypto, NoCode, and podcasting. Other channels focus on specific business challenges such as hiring, raising capital, and marketing.
