Cybersecurity Startup Founder Office Hours with Pooja Shimpi

Building a cybersecurity product and looking for practitioner feedback?

As a two-time startup founder who has built cybersecurity-focused businesses from the ground up, I understand the realities of product development, customer acquisition, positioning, and growth. This session is designed for founders who want practical feedback from someone who has operated both inside large enterprises and startup environments.

This session is designed for startup founders, product leaders, and early-stage teams building solutions in cybersecurity, GRC, security awareness, phishing simulation, compliance, risk management, security culture, AI Governance or related domains.

Bring your challenges, ideas, roadmap questions, or go-to-market concerns.

Topics may include:

• Product positioning and differentiation

• Enterprise buyer expectations

• Feature prioritization

• Product-market fit discussions

• Pricing and packaging feedback

• Security awareness and phishing simulation platforms

• GRC and risk management solutions

• Security culture and human risk management products

• Customer adoption challenges

• Founder and growth strategy discussions

You'll receive candid, independent feedback from the perspective of an experienced enterprise practitioner, cybersecurity leader, trainer, and consultant.

Ideal for founders who want practical input before investing time and resources into building the wrong thing.
