Watch our exclusive interview with Ronni Zehavi Co-Founder and CEO at HiBob.
Ronni starts by taking us back to the early days of his first company, #Contendo, sharing insights into their #GTM strategy and how they managed to scale rapidly—ultimately leading to the company's $270 million acquisition by Akamai Technologies.
We then move on to his journey at Bessemer Venture Partners, where he founded HiBob. We discussed fascinating topics such as how he chose which market to tackle, how the #GTM strategy developed over time, and his position on growing organically versus through M&A—highlighted by #acquisitions like Cassiopeia , bugle, Pento, a HiBob company and the recent Mosaic deal.
We also discussed the Human Capital Management (#HCM) landscape—how HiBob has differentiated itself in a #competitive market, and what it takes to scale quickly while continuing to #innovate.
