Throxy are very excited to welcome Oscar Lanzendorf from ElevenLabs as our next guest on Inside The Pipeline!

Many of you will have heard of ElevenLabs. Having grown from zero to $300M ARR in just three years, now valued at $6.6BN and with a team of 400, they’ve become a dominant force in the voice AI space.

Oscar himself has had a fascinating career, having worked at Nico Rosberg Ventures before joining ElevenLabs just under a year ago.

In the podcast, Tris and Ben speak with Oscar about hyper-growth cultures, the ultra-competitive ElevenLabs application process, GTM strategies in 2026, and many other interesting and exciting topics.

We’re very appreciative of Oscar’s time, so thank you for joining us, Oscar!

If you’d like to message him after listening, his LinkedIn messages are open — just please leave a note to let him know why you’re getting in touch.

Enjoy!

Episode 3 of Inside the Pipeline brings one of Norway’s finest, Christopher Mjelde, to the Throxy offices for a fascinating conversation.

Having been through Y Combinator a couple of years ago, Chris has been quietly building his latest venture, Kenobi, in stealth mode. The release of this episode neatly coincides with the initial launch of Kenobi’s automatic website modifier, which gives every website visitor a personalised page based on their characteristics.

We also spoke about the tricky parts of founding a business: getting rejected, pivoting, letting employees go.

It was a very natural and open conversation, and we thank Chris for coming in and spending time with us to record!

Next up on throxy's Inside The Pipeline is Amelia Miller! Many of you will know Amelia from her recent (and very successful) visit on the famous BBC business pitch TV show Dragons' Den.

On the show, Amelia and her co-founder sister Lydia managed to secure investment from the one and only Steven Bartlett. However, the days after the podcast weren't exactly as expected...

We hosted Amelia in our office in Marleybone at the start of November 2025, just days after her episode of Dragons' Den was released.

During the interview, we talked about the methods Amelia has put in place to fire up her LinkedIn account, getting eyeballs on the Ivee mission. Amelia also spoke about how Ivee is re educating a crucial segment of the workforce in the wake of AI.

Enjoy!

Our first guest is Will Bennett from Seedcamp.

Will's background is rare. He was an operator at Fuse Energy ($5bn valuation), and now he's investing at Seedcamp. The dual perspective of having been a builder and a backer gives him a lens most people don't have. Seedcamp was an early backer of global fintech company Revolut, as well as the UK's #1 AI company, Synthesia, so Will is perfectly placed for a perspective on the underlying trends in venture capital.

We talked about where he sees growth right now (interesting conversations on deep tech), what patterns are consistent in successful founders and honestly, some stuff that went completely off on a tangent, in a good way.

Enjoy!
