Storm Ventures

Last Wednesday, I shared my latest presentation, "Race to Category Leader," with 75 founders from the Amazon Web Services (AWS) APJ-US SaaS Delegation. We talked about understanding your company's journey, the art of creating a new category, and how to become a category leader after you unlock growth. A huge thanks to Woojin Kim, Sungbae Park, Will Lee, and Deependra Singh for facilitating the event and inviting me to speak. Curious about category leadership?

🚀 Excited to announce the launch of AirMDR! Our Autonomous SOC as a Service, powered by AI-driven Virtual Analysts. Anthony Morris and I started on this journey almost a year ago. We have both run SOCs, worked with SOCs, helped transform SOCs - but felt that the best SOC transformation is yet to come. Way too many tasks in SOC are still being done manually. And, automation has not paid the ROI for 90%+ of the enterprises. Here is the full story behind why we started AirMDR - and why we are doing this as a service. https://lnkd.in/d4hWgVtD I really want to thank all our design partners, some of whom have become customers in helping us build the SOC they always thought should exist. And, I want to thank our investors Sid Trivedi and Tae Hea Nahm - who backed us at the stage where it was just an idea. And one of the most important things is the people you work with. I am grateful to get an opportunity to work with a very talented team, and some very seasoned executives like Srikant Vissamsetti, Anand Ramanathan and Carolyn Crandall A huge thank you to advisors and friends who helped all along the way..
