My Three-Day AWS re:Invent Experience: A Strategic VC Perspective (Disclaimer: First Timer) The conference was a massive event, rivaling nearly 60-70% of CES's scale, which is typically the largest gathering in Las Vegas. The sheer size was evident in the crowded, standing-room-only receptions and dinners - though I unfortunately missed three VC-hosted Wed dinners due to a conflicting event in San Francisco. (And TBH, more than 3 days in Vegas is overwhelming!) From a strategic standpoint, AWS's engagement with venture capitalists is brilliantly multifaceted. By hosting VC-targeted sessions, I think they are achieving three key objectives: 1. Market Intelligence: VCs serve as AWS's real-time sensors for emerging trends and startup ecosystem pain points. 2. Business Expansion: They can seamlessly connect portfolio companies with AWS's powerful platforms like Bedrock and SageMaker. 3. Talent Scouting: VCs can potentially identify and introduce promising acquisition targets to AWS. Key Takeaways: AWS demonstrated remarkable agility and market responsiveness through several noteworthy announcements: - A unified platform in SageMaker - More efficient architectural training via HyperPod and dynamic accelerator allocation - Opening the Bedrock marketplace - Implementing intelligent prompt routing The comprehensiveness of AWS's offerings presents both an opportunity and a challenge for startups. While AWS provides incredible tools, emerging companies must sharpen their go-to-market strategies and focus on unique value propositions. A particularly exciting announcement was the Bedrock Data automation capability. If executed as promised, this could revolutionize how unstructured, multi-modal content is transformed into structured training data. My attendance at two VC roundtables - focusing on AI and Silicon (Trainium) - further reinforced AWS's impressive technical depth and strategic vision. Kudos to the AWS team for an exceptional conference! BTW, the attached picture is from the Visionaries in the Stadium at Allegiant Stadium. Well, it was too much going on for me - I left after 30 minutes. 😅 + The strategic placement of Luma AI in the main keynote speaks volumes about a16z's network influence. #AWSreInvent #AIInfrastructure #VentureCapital #TechInnovation #KudosAWSTeam #SpecialThankstoJasonGuesman #VisionariesintheStadium #LittleToomuch

Every ~7 years, a new technology wave emerges that reshapes the tech landscape: from the internet, to mobile, to cloud and now AI. The latest wave, AI, is here to stay according to Battery Ventures’ deep dive State of the OpenCloud report. Our team highlights massive opportunities ahead: ⛓️💥 $4T in potential AI-driven disruption and revenue across software, services, and automation 🤖 AI reshaping core software trends, from developer workflows to go-to-market models 💰 Continued long-term growth runway as software spend % of GDP remains relatively low If you're a builder looking to ride the next big wave, the time is now. The report paints a compelling picture of the scale and transformative power of AI. I'm excited to see what the future holds!

It’s a hard journey building a startup. Even when there’s overwhelming demand, even when you’ve got a lot of industry experience and support - it’s difficult. There are a lot of ups and downs, but I feel really proud of what we’ve accomplished at Acryl Data Data over the past year… We tripled our revenue in 2023 capitalizing on the huge demand around data and AI. We’ve partnered with some of the most renowned companies in the world to advance best practices in data discovery, modern governance, and data observability. Between Acryl Cloud and DataHub, our clients now include Netflix, Stripe, Pinterest, Optum, Notion, and ZenDesk. That’s just who we’re allowed to mention 😏 To me, this alone is a huge accomplishment. But there’s more… DataHub has established itself as the #1 metadata platform with thousands of adopters including many of the above. Building Acryl Cloud on top of such a robust platform, we’ve been able to accelerate time-to-value for enterprises through premium features and new capabilities. Our clients are saving time, money, and a lot of energy by using Acryl to manage their data resources. This is at a time when data has become one of the most important, and challenging assets to control within an organization. Because of that, we’re seeing an excellent return. By most definitions, Shirshanka Das and I consider ourselves pretty successful - so far at least!

Big Tech—Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Alphabet—is set to exceed $200bn in capital spending this year, primarily on data centres and infrastructure. This mirrors early cloud computing investments, which initially strained margins but paid off over time. While these moves show Big Tech’s confidence in AI’s future, they raise investor concerns about ROI amid rising costs. (Financial Times: https://lnkd.in/ey29-XAM) Databricks, on the other hand, highlights a different trend in the private sector. By planning to raise funds to manage employee stock options without an IPO, it underscores the balance between growth and workforce retention. (@The Information: https://lnkd.in/gWY_eeQc) Both cases underscores a vital lesson for tech leaders: the importance of flexible, scalable strategies that align with both present capabilities and future demands. 3 Key Takeaways: 1. Adaptability in Strategy: Public tech companies illustrate that investing in scalable infrastructure is essential, even if immediate returns are uncertain. They are building the foundation for anticipated AI-driven services, which could redefine industry standards in the years ahead. 2.. Private Sector Agility: Databricks’ plan to raise funds privately to support employee stock liquidity without rushing into an IPO shows the value of strategic flexibility. Private companies can scale operations and manage workforce needs with more leeway, positioning themselves for sustainable growth. 3. Balancing Innovation and Cost: Both public and private entities reveal the need to manage the tension between aggressive investment and financial health. While public firms face market scrutiny, private firms can leverage creative funding to maintain growth without sacrificing stability. In short, the future of AI investment relies on strategies that are both robust and adaptable. Companies should build scalable AI solutions that meet current needs and can pivot as technology advances. This approach sustains growth and positions firms for future opportunities. The clear takeaway: AI success demands not just bold investment but strategic flexibility. Leaders who balance these elements will navigate AI’s rapid evolution with resilience and foresight. #AIInvestment #TechLeadership #TechTrends
