Democratizing Hyperscaler Partnerships with Juhi Saha of Partner1®

In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we sit down with Juhi Saha, the founder and CEO of Partner1®. Juhi shares her journey from building high-growth startup programs at Microsoft to identifying a critical gap in the market: most B2B tech companies lack the roadmap to leverage lucrative hyperscaler partnerships (like Microsoft, Amazon, Google) and are leaving significant revenue on the table. She founded Partner1 to democratize this access, providing the strategies and playbooks that were once reserved for a select few.We dive into how Partner1® operates, from its hands-on advisory and 12-week accelerator programs to its new SaaS platform designed to scale partner success. Juhi discusses the power of ecosystems for hockey-stick growth, the challenges of scaling while maintaining quality, and how the future of partnerships is being shaped by AI and outcome-based models. She also shares invaluable advice for early-stage founders on prioritizing the right revenue and building partnerships into their DNA from day one.
