growth

“Make it a conscious commitment, not an unconscious commitment, to grow at a pace that enables you, ah, to build an enduring company, not just, you know, one of the top fastest growing companies of the year.”

“Growth is another word for introducing volatility. Widening the fan of outcomes for that company.”

“The thing is when you are an early stage company, you cannot really afford to plan your growth based on something that's going to happen in three years because you only have money for like eight months.”

“Whether you like it or not, and I don't really know if there will be an extended funding winter but it's pretty clear that something has changed in the funding environment in the last couple of days, weeks, and months. Growth is no longer rewarded at any cost.”

“At the end of today, even in this, again, macroeconomic environment, where people are starting to look for also profitability or capital efficiency, still, ladies and gentlemen, growth is the king.”

“Layoffs don't really solve anything. They're just little, they're little snacks, right? They make little incremental changes, but layoffs don't create growth on their own, right?”

“If growth isn't accelerating, you're not an AI company.”
