Kieran Flanagan is the Chief Marketing Officer at Zapier and one of the most influential voices in B2B marketing. A former software engineer turned marketing leader, he spent nearly a decade at HubSpot building its international marketing engine - growing the Dublin office from 12 to 1,000+ employees. Today he co-hosts the 'Marketing Against the Grain' podcast with HubSpot CMO Kipp Bodnar, publishes 'The AI Marketing Generalist' newsletter on Substack, and invests as a Sequoia Scout. He is widely credited with pioneering the B2B creator approach to marketing and is an outspoken champion of AI-driven marketing transformation.
Sam Parr is a serial entrepreneur and media creator who built The Hustle from zero to 1.5 million subscribers before selling it to HubSpot for ~$27 million. He co-hosts My First Million, a top-25 business podcast with Shaan Puri that pulls over 1 million downloads a month, and co-founded Hampton, a vetted peer community for high-revenue founders now generating ~$8M ARR. Equal parts hustler and storyteller, Parr turned a Nashville hot dog stand into an eight-figure media empire and keeps reinventing what it means to build in public.
