$500M Client Financing Success
Share
Justin Kan shares the early success and growth of his legal startup Atrium.
"To date, Atrium has done over $500 million in new primary financings for clients. We have over 240 clients here in Silicon Valley and around the country. We scaled from a team of 4 people to 80 people in this last year.
We've done some things okay, but there's still a lot to do - all I see is problems and there's a long road ahead. One thing I should say is no matter who you are, it never gets easier. If you feel stressed out, if you feel like you're struggling with your startup, you should just know that I'm feeling the same pain somewhere in the world. I'm probably banging my head against the table on something that's not scaling exactly right. I thought it would be easier this time - that was my mistake."
