Roundtable Recap: April 16 – Billion Dollar Unicorns with Fred Luddy, Founder of ServiceNow

During today’s roundtable, we celebrated the launch of my book, Billion Dollar Unicorns, with Fred Luddy, Founder and Chief Product Officer of ServiceNow, one of the most successful companies in the history of enterprise software. The company, founded in 2003, is valued at over $12 billion in the public market today. It was a truly wonderful discussion, marked with Fred’s warmth, humility and wit: “We hire people with a lot of experience. We ask them to bring their knowledge, and leave their baggage!”

SHURUA(R)T
As for the pitches, first up, Gaurav Tiwari from Varanasi, India, pitched SHURUA(R)T, a portal where young artists in training in India can sell their original art for $150 to folks in the United States. I suggested a somewhat different strategy than what Gaurav was contemplating.

ExTravelMoney.com
Next, George Azchariah from Cochin, India, pitched ExTravelMoney.com, a foreign exchange portal where Indian travelers can access foreign exchange at attractive prices. My hunch is that this would find better traction with travel agencies and corporates.

Both Informatica and SnapLogic are Unicorns, and it is rare to have an entrepreneur who can do two of these in a row.
