Bright Growth is doubling its CMO firepower!

Thrilled to welcome Kaan Ersun to the Bright Growth Network.

Kaan and I go way back — we met at the Berkeley-Haas MBA program and bonded over our shared journey:
👉 Engineers turned marketers
👉 Mayfield Fellows, Haas Venture Fellows, Entrepreneurs Association alumni
👉 A passion for helping companies scale

Kaan has built an incredible track record:

  • Director of Marketing @ Salesforce

  • VP of Marketing @ Talkdesk

  • SVP Marketing + COO @ Solvvy (acquired by Zoom in 2022)

Today, he advises early-stage SaaS+AI and FinTech companies as a fractional COO and CMO — helping founders turn big ideas into fast-growing businesses.

And beyond the resume?
Kaan is affable, sharp, and down-to-earth — someone I’m lucky to call a professional brother and friend.

🎉 Welcome aboard, Kaan! Excited for the road ahead.
