Podcast: Can Startups Turn Data Privacy Into a Sales Superpower with Strategic Compliance
In this BizBlend episode, host Sana cuts through the fear and fluff around data privacy, compliance, and AI governance for startups. Instead of doom and legal jargon, this conversation reframes SOC 2, ISO 27001, and trust centers as growth levers that actually move pipeline and unlock enterprise deals.
Sana is joined by Shayne Adler, CEO of Aetos Data Consulting, to unpack how early-stage founders can treat privacy, security, and AI risk as part of their go-to-market strategy, not a last-minute tax. They dig into compliance debt, algorithmic disgorgement, shadow AI, and why investors quietly screen for privacy maturity long before you think regulators care.
If you are a B2B or B2C founder, product leader, or GTM owner who keeps saying “we will deal with compliance later,” this episode shows you how to start this week with simple privacy checks, practical guardrails, and operator-friendly frameworks that do not kill speed.
