    Brilliant episode! The main takeaway is to never be afraid to speak your mind even if this means asking "silly" questions.

    The elephant in the room
    The most important question that wasn’t asked, how do you get 10-15 meetings a day, with CISOs, from fortune 100 companies, get them to help you and fill questionnaires, before you even have a product?

      She says the CEO had previously led cloud security at Microsoft. That means the team's network is insane. Plus, customers at that caliber will take the opportunity to get involved early because they can recognize when someone is the real deal and not just wasting their time.

    That 18 months timeline seems very dubious. With so much pivoting they would have to reach $100m ARR less than a year. Either way there are great nuggets in the video. Thanks for setting it up and posting.

      Indeed, start by introducing the product and its value proposition then how it came about and evolved. She mentioned very briefly it's a network security product and its customers are CISOs still not sure if that is what it is. I almost Googled what the product is but decided not to bother. I feel like we were eavesdropping on a conversation between friends.

    Hello Sir, I'm a QA Engineer and I feel like I've reached the peak of what the position offers before moving into Management. Besides working with AI, what do you recommend for the future? How could I reach a $100k salary? Should I go back to being a developer? I was a developer for 8 years before moving into QA, where I've been for almost 10 years now. I don’t have any certifications, but I've worked in manual testing, automation, API testing, backend testing, performance testing, and lately I've been focusing on AI. I’d like to hear your opinion on career options and what I should study or pursue for future opportunities. What do you see as potential paths?
