SHOW NOTES:

HOW DO THE VCs LOOK AT THE STATE OF THE OPEN CLOUD MARKET?

VCs are still very bullish on cloud-native and open-source cloud companies
“Good growth” will be encouraged and rewarded
Software “multiples” are back to 2018-19 levels. The 2020s were crazy value inflation.

HOW CAN THAT INFLUENCE WHAT 2023 MIGHT LOOK LIKE?

Lots of companies are re-evaluating their spending levels and cost levels
Lots of highly “valued” private companies may become acquisition targets in 2023
Most of the job-cuts, thus far, haven’t been that large, as a percentage.
For software businesses, cloud-services are growing 3-5x their software business. Expect to see more companies moving to those offerings.
Cloud providers continue to show strong growth, even at a larger scale. Expect this to continue, although they are all shifting their focuses.
Software can be a driving force to enable productivity, so expect to see companies continue to focus on software-driven projects.
Lots of good insights into how the selling and buying model are evolving. Interesting if you’re evaluating companies beyond just what they offer.
