Teams presenting their builds to the jury at Embedded Finance Build Day in Stockholm

The full list of earlier events is on Alexandra Grisanti's Luma profile: 12 public events since October 2025.

A SaaS and fintech executive network, in the room.

Insider Events are the invite-only rooms of the Operator Network: dinners, demo nights, CMO and CFO breakfasts and build days for Stockholm's SaaS, AI and fintech founders, executives, operators and investors. The focus is operator-led growth and investment.

There's no membership and no membership fee. You apply to each event, and every seat is approved so the room stays small and well mixed. Why we think rooms like these matter more after AI: Why IRL.

På svenskaInsider Events är Operator Networks slutna träffar i Stockholm för grundare, chefer, operativa ledare och investerare inom SaaS, AI och fintech: middagar, demokvällar, frukostar och rundabordssamtal för vd, CFO och CMO samt build days, med fokus på operator-led growth och investeringar. Det finns inget medlemskap och ingen medlemsavgift. Du ansöker till varje event på Luma och värden godkänner varje plats.

Questions about Insider Events

How do I sign up for an event?

Pick a room above and apply on its Luma page, ideally at least two weeks ahead. The host approves every seat so each room stays small and well mixed. Approved guests get the address and time.

Is there a membership or a membership fee?

No. There's no membership to apply for and no membership fee. You apply to individual events on Luma.

What does it cost to attend?

Most rooms are free. A few carry a small commitment fee, such as 100 kr for a breakfast round table, so the people who sign up turn up. Any fee is shown on the Luma page.

Who attends Insider Events?

Founders, executives, operators and investors in Stockholm's SaaS, AI and fintech scene. Past rooms included CMOs from Mindler and Natural Cycles; CEOs and CFOs from Gilion and Fairlo; and builders and jury members from Danske Bank, Froda, Worldline, Open Payments and Zwapgrid.

How do I hear about new events first?

Follow the Operator Network calendar on Luma, and subscribe to Stockholm Growth & Fintech, where speaker calls and event invitations go out.

Where do the events take place?

Mostly in Stockholm. In 2026 rooms also ran in Gothenburg and Amsterdam, including a partner dinner after Money20/20 Europe.

How big are the rooms?

Small on purpose. A CEO + CFO breakfast has 16 seats. The Embedded Finance Build Day had 72 approved places and 44 builders.

Can I speak at an event or on the podcast?

Yes. Most rooms are led by a few participants rather than a keynote speaker; say so when you apply or email Alexandra. Speakers from our events are the guests we'll invite onto The Belonging Economy podcast.

My company wants to host a room or get visibility. Where do I go?

To Alexandra Studio, the B2B growth studio run by the same founder. The Operator Network doesn't sell sponsorship, seats or agenda time.
