In this episode of SaaS Stories, Sam Zammit shares his journey from military service to co-founding Karmo, a vehicle subscription platform reshaping how Australians access cars without the long-term burden of ownership.

Sam also reflects on the founder mindset, from grit and persistence to making intentional career and business decisions through high-stakes growth milestones.
