DETAILS

We're excited to welcome Yancey Spruill, CEO of NYC cloud-computing company DigitalOcean, for a fireside chat on "From NYC Droplet to IPO: Lessons on Scaling DigitalOcean" on Wednesday, April 21st from 2PM - 3PM ET.


Yancey joined DigitalOcean as CEO in 2019 with over 15 years of technical & financial experience. Under Yancey's leadership, DigitalOcean grew its revenue by 25% & now serves over 570,000 customers globally. Just last week, the company debuted in the public market, raising $775M in their IPO!

We're excited to chat with Yancey about DigitalOcean's journey, including:

- How did the NYC tech ecosystem play a role in DigitalOcean's early growth?
- Why is it more important than ever to win the hearts & minds of developers?
- How does DigitalOcean differentiate itself in the crowded cloud environment?
- What has been the biggest learning for Yancey since taking the helm of DigitalOcean 2 years ago?
- What's a key lesson from DigitalOcean's journey for early-stage founders?
- What's on the horizon for DigitalOcean post-IPO?

We'll also feature an enterprise startup demo from Andre Hill, Founder & CEO of Treno, a platform that calculates the health, optimal delivery standards, & goals for engineering organizations, as well as provides playbooks designed to improve project outcomes & team execution in real-time.
