The #1 Partner Portal
on top of your CRM

The Ghent-based technology startup Introw, which is already helping 100+ B2B companies to boost sales through partners, has raised $3 million in a new funding round led by Visionaries Club and with the continued support from PitchDrive. Since its launch in 2023, Introw’s AI-powered partner platform has facilitated tens of thousands of partner interactions and helped clients generate millions in additional pipeline.

The company had previously raised €1 million from Pitchdrive and angel investors including Pieterjan Bouten (Ex-Showpad) and Ewout Meyns (Ex-HubSpot).

From Local Studio to International Growth

Founders Andreas Geamanu (CEO), Laurens Lavaert (CTO), and Simon Van Den Hende (Head of AI) started Introw in early 2023, originally incubated by StarApps, the venture studio of serial entrepreneurs Lorenz Bogaert & Nicolas Van Eenaeme, also known as the “Netlog mafia.”

2025 has been a breakthrough year for Introw: the team grew from 4 to 15 people, and revenue quadrupled.

AI-Driven Partner Enablement

Buyers now expect highly personalized experiences, yet outreach fatigue and tighter privacy regulations have made it harder for direct sales teams to cut through the noise. That’s why an increasing number of companies are turning to partner sales (indirect sales) as these already have relationships, credibility, and access to customers.

Introw’s AI-powered partner portal enables companies to onboard, train, and activate partners in minutes. Unlike legacy systems that take months to deploy, Introw connects instantly to your CRM, giving partners access to customer data, and sales tools to close more deals.

“Each day a partner lacks the right information, means lost revenue. Where other partner portals take four to six months to launch, we do it in minutes.” says CEO Andreas Geamanu.

Visionaries Club Backs a Fast-Growing Success Story

Visionaries Club, which previously invested in tech companies such as Lovable, n8n, and the Belgian Accountable (recently acquired by Visma), sees huge potential in Introw.

Partnerships drive a huge share of global B2B revenue, yet most teams still manage them with spreadsheets and outdated tools. Introw is changing that with a platform built for speed and simplicity.” said Robert Jäckle, Partner at Visionaries Club. “The team is creating the first truly intelligent partner system, turning partnerships from a ‘nice-to-have’ into a real growth engine. We’re backing them because they move fast and have the ambition to own this category

Becoming the Market Leader in Partner Enablement

A large share of Introw’s revenue already comes from the US, where the company is seeing accelerating traction. With this new funding, Introw is scaling its sales and marketing presence and doubling down on its AI-first vision.

The mission is clear: To become the global leader in AI-driven partner enablement and redefine how companies grow through partners.

Partner-led growth depends on empowering partners to work alongside direct sales to drive customer acquisition and revenue — and tight integration between your CRM and partner workflows is essential to get this right. 

This seamless integration creates a unified view of leads and opportunities, allowing both internal teams and partners to collaborate seamlessly and avoid duplicating their efforts. 

Furthermore, integrated systems enable accurate deal registration, attribution, and tracking, which is critical for partner incentives and performance insights.

With synced workflows, partners can register deals directly, co-sell with your team, and stay aligned through shared timelines and updates. 

Additionally, CRM integration enables automated notifications, streamlined onboarding, and enhanced forecasting (by including partner pipeline in revenue projections). 

The key benefits of tightly integrating your CRM and partner workflows?

Less friction, shorter sales cycles, and better partner trust. 

Ultimately, it allows you to scale your partner ecosystem efficiently while maintaining transparency, accountability, and data-driven decision-making — all of which are vital to a successful partner-led growth strategy.

This is why companies are increasingly shifting from standalone PRM portals to CRM-first experiences like Introw — which integrates with popular CRMs, including HubSpot —  to streamline their partner collaboration. 

This approach meets partners where they work and aligns them more closely with internal sales processes.

Ready to scale your partner management this year? 

⬇️ In this guide, we'll cover why HubSpot is a highly effective platform for partner management and take you through seven must-have best practices for scaling in 2025. 

Can You Manage Partners in HubSpot? (Spoiler: Yes — with the Right Setup)

HubSpot doesn't have native PRM, but it offers several features that can be useful for SaaS partner management projects. 

For example, the platform supports custom objects, labels, and workflows. 

All of these elements are super useful for companies running small partner management projects. 

The problem arises when you want to scale. 

Indeed, most partner programs will quickly outgrow manual tagging and disconnected forms. 

Once you get serious about your partner program, you need a PRM that is tailor-made for managing and scaling these schemes. 

At the same time, you don't want to silo your partner management efforts from your CRM — this would create data disconnects, limiting visibility into partner-driven deals and slowing collaboration. 

The solution?

Invest in tightly CRM-integrated PRM tools like Introw. 

This way, you fill the PRM gap natively inside HubSpot and give your partnerships the best possible chance of flourishing. 

Why HubSpot Is a Strong Foundation for Partner Management

Many SaaS teams already rely on HubSpot as their central source of truth for customers, deals, and marketing. 

But increasingly, partner managers are realizing HubSpot can also be a superb command center for their partner programs — as long as they configure the platform in the right way. 

Here's why HubSpot makes sense as a foundation for partner management in 2025:

• Unified CRM: HubSpot consolidates marketing, sales, and service data — giving RevOps and partner teams shared visibility
• Custom Properties & Objects: You can track partner types, partner-sourced deals, referrals, and more — without duct-taping separate systems
• Automation: Workflows make it easy to route leads, assign reps, or trigger partner engagement emails
• Integrations: Certified apps like Introw turn HubSpot into a fully featured PRM, removing the need for standalone portals or duplicate tracking
• No-Code Setup: You can scale your partner ops without custom dev work or heavy training

In short, if HubSpot is already your CRM, there's no reason to manage your partner program outside of it. 

Instead, plug in a PRM like Introw, and you'll gain a partner-ready ecosystem inside your CRM — one that works for RevOps, Sales, and Partner Managers alike.

7 Must-Have HubSpot Partner Management Practices for 2025

Ready to scale your partner program with Hubspot? 

Here are seven vital HubSpot partner management practices you should be following for success in 2025. 

1. Automate Partner Onboarding with Forms + CRM Sync

This one will save you a lot of time! 

Did you know you can use Introw to push form data (e.g. "Become a Partner") directly into HubSpot?

First, connect Introw to HubSpot to enable seamless data synchronization. 

This integration allows form submissions, such as partner applications, to be pushed directly into HubSpot.

You can then use HubSpot's automation tools to trigger actions upon form submission. 

For instance, automatically create a contact or company record, assign tasks, or send follow-up emails.

2. Enable Easy Deal & Lead Registration (No HubSpot Login Needed)

Introw allows for off-portal collaboration, which makes life much easier for your partners. 

Indeed, your partners don't even need to log in to HubSpot in order to submit deals or register leads. 

Instead, they can submit deals via a form, Slack or email. 

The details are then auto-mapped to HubSpot, which acts as your single source of truth. 

3. Collaborate on Deals Inside HubSpot with CRM Cards

Using CRM cards from Introw, teams can collaborate on partner-sourced deals directly inside HubSpot. 

These embedded cards show deal details, partner info, and updates in real-time — without switching tools.

This means your partner's comments are automatically turned into CRM notes

Real-time sync keeps the deal's status, details, and updates aligned with your HubSpot pipeline, enabling smooth, in-CRM collaboration.

This streamlines communication, boosts visibility and keeps sales and partner teams aligned throughout the deal cycle.

4. Track Partner Performance in Real-Time

The success of your partner strategy hinges on data analysis. 

Tracking partner performance in real-time is crucial to help you identify top performers, spot bottlenecks, and optimize your partner strategy as deals progress. 

Indeed, without a sophisticated tracking and data analysis system, you're just guessing at what works and hoping you're right. 

But with the right tools in your arsenal, you unlock faster decision-making, more accurate forecasting, and effective incentives — driving accountability, growth, and stronger partner relationships across your ecosystem.

Fortunately, Introw and HubSpot work together to make real-time data analysis easy. 

Introw generates dashboards based on HubSpot data. 

Set up dashboards based on metrics that speak to your goals — for example, revenue, activity, pipeline, or deal data.

5. Engage Partners Off-Portal via Email & Slack

One of Introw's most partner-friendly features is that it allows you to engage your partners off-portal via email and Slack. 

This means partners don't need to log into their portal to communicate or collaborate with you. 

Instead, they receive real-time notifications, can comment on deals, and stay in the loop — all off-portal — making collaboration faster, easier, and more integrated into their daily workflows.

6. Customize Experiences by Partner Type

In 2025, personalization is crucial when it comes to engaging your partners. 

Deliver an irrelevant or jarring experience, and partners could lose trust in your offering and become more reluctant to recommend you. 

Introw supports dynamic views and objects in HubSpot, which allows you to customize partner experiences by type.

For example, you can tailor onboarding flows, forms, content, and deal stages for different partner types, like partner submitted referrals, a successful reseller channel, or MSPs.

Simply segment partners within HubSpot and Introw, then deliver relevant experiences and workflows that match their role, ensuring higher engagement and more effective collaboration across partner types.‍

7. Automate Commission Tracking & Payouts

Connect Introw with your HubSpot CRM to automate commission tracking and payouts. 

As deals close, Introw tracks which partner influenced each one, calculates commissions based on preset rules and logs the data. 

You can then use CRM triggers to automate payout workflows or give partners visibility over their commissions. 

This ensures accuracy, transparency, and timely rewards.
