When an entire category gets acquired by PE, it's like when a building goes under rent control. Nobody wants to invest. Everybody just wants to milk past investments. This creates a great opportunity for VC-backed startups to disrupt the incumbents. All while they're just focused on making plan and cranking EBITDA.

Software is eating the world - and is going to revolutionize biotech. I am super stoked on what "softwarization" of biotech is going to bring!

BAAAM!! - IBM acquires Manta Software Inc. to complement data and AI governance capabilities. It's been a hell of a ride. THANK YOU!! 🙏🍾 newsroom.ibm.com/IBM-acquires-M…

I love new logo acquisition as a key GTM metric. New logos are essential for any time of long term growth. Land & expand is important as well but it's more of a lock in and value-related metric batteryventures.substack.com/p/be-long-term…

@johnnitschke If you are not using ubiquity wifi access points already, then I can only recommend them. Install a 2nd access point with same network ID and your devices will roam seamlessly.

I had always Wi-Fi issues in my living room, and I help myself with a LAN connection. But this only helps for my TV and my MacBook, not for my mobile. I was thinking about a wifi repeater, but didn’t know where to put it. Today I found the design center of unify. This is so much fun and so helpful. I keep you updated if this works.

Great overview from ICONIQ on GTM metrics and comp! 🙏 Go to Market Series: Sales Compensation iconiqcapital.com/growth/insight…

Many of our companies are driving towards Rule of 40 but not all Ro40 paths are the same. Consider $100m ARR biz: 5 years of 20% ARR growth, 20% FCF =$50m in terminal FCF vs 60%/-20% for 3 yrs then 2yrs 20%/20%=$118m terminal FCF Better to grow ARR vs FCF if u can.
