Ashley Tarver, Cloudera | ACG SV Grow! Awards 2019
(upbeat music) >> From Mountain View, California, it's theCUBE covering the 15th annual GROW! Awards. Brought to you by ACG SV. >> Hey, Lisa Martin with theCUBE on the ground at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, for the 15th annual ACG SV GROW! Awards. Can you hear the energy and all the innovation happening behind me? Well, I'm here with one of the board members of ACG SV, Ashley Tarver, big data evangelist for Cloudera. Ashley, thank you so much for joining me on theCUBE tonight. >> My pleasure, I'm glad to be here. >> Lot of collaboration going on behind us, right? >> It's a great networking event. >> It is. >> 'Cause so many people have showed up. >> There's over 230 people. >> Oh, easily. >> Expected tonight, over 100 of those are C-levels. Before we get into your association with ACG SV, talk to us a little bit about what's going on at Cloudera, just the Hortonworks acquisition was just completed, the merger, a couple months ago, what's going on there? >> It's very exciting. As most people might know, we just did a major collaboration merger with a company called Hortonworks. And the two companies together, we're about twice the size as we were before and for the industry and for our customers, it's been really exciting because we've been able to really create what we call the enterprise data cloud that really enables our customers to bring all their data together into one single platform and we call it an edge-to-AI solution. We're really one of the only companies right now in the world who have the ability to do that in a comprehensive manner and we can do it on the premise, we can do it in the cloud, a hybrid cloud environment, so it gives you the ultimate flexibility and the merger has allowed us to really accomplish that for our customers. >> As we and every company that's succeeding today is living in this hybrid, multi-cloud environment where the edge is proliferating, the security perimeters are morphing dramatically, companies need to be able to transform digitally in a secure way, but also enable access to data from decades ago. >> Yeah, most anybody's who's listening to the media will hear IoT is really the big play and the ability to capture all that data from multiple in-points, edge devices, and bring it all into a single data repository is a major challenge. So, having the ability to do that in a. You can do it now with the way we're doing it, the way your company wants to do it. So if you're already in the cloud, you can stay there, if you wanted to keep it on the premise. So there's a lot of options that we now bring to the table. So hopefully, it becomes a little easier for our customers. >> So when you're talking with customers that maybe have a lot of workloads, enterprise workloads, maybe legacy still on prem, and you're talking to them in your role as the big data evangelist, where does the topic of AI come up? I mean, are you talking to them about here is a massive opportunity for you to actually leverage AI, you got to go to the cloud to do it? >> Absolutely. I mean, AI is kind of a marketing term that you hear a lot about. For us, it's really about machine learning and machine learning is taking large sets of data and putting logic on top of it and so you can tease out valuable insights that you might not otherwise get. So the ability to then apply that in an AI environment becomes extremely important and the ability to do that across a large data set is what's really complicated. But if you're a real data scientist, you want to have as much data as you can so your models can run more accurately. And as soon as you can do that, you'll have the ability to really improve your models, extract better insights out of the data you do own, and provide more value to your own company and your own customers. >> Absolutely, it's a fascinating topic, but since we're low on time here, we are at the 15th annual GROW! Awards. ACG SV recognizing Arista Networks for the Outstanding Growth Award and Adesto Technologies for the Emerging Growth Award. You've been involved as a board member of ACG SV for about a year now. What makes this organization worthy of your time? >> Well, it's really exciting 'cause in Silicon Valley, it's unique 'cause it's all about collaboration. The innovation that we create out of this location of the globe is through networking with our peers and ACG opens up that window, provides a door that allows you to meet with your peers, your competitors, your friends, and as a result, you can create insights and capabilities about your own company and technology directions that's really helpful. So, it's the networking, they also put on excellent C-circle events, which is really good because if your company is looking at growing as a startup, you might be able to get some valuable insights from peers who know how to do HR, merger acquisitions, finance. And so, the ability to do networking like at an event like this, the ability to come in and learn how to do business processes more effectively, it all plays a really important role at ACG. >> Well Ashley, thank you so much for carving out some time to join us on theCUBE tonight. >> My pleasure, thanks for having me. >> I'm Lisa Martin, you're watching theCUBE.

Kenneth Duda, Arista Technologies | ACG SV Grow! Awards
>> From Mountain View, California, it's theCUBE covering the 15th annual Grow Awards. Brought to you by ACG SV. >> Hey, Lisa Martin, on the ground with theCUBE at the 15th annual ACG SV Grow Awards, Association for Corporate Growth Silicon Valley, is what that stands for. Can you hear the energy and the innovation going on back here? It's amazing tonight. I'm very pleased to welcome to theCUBE, one of tonight's winners from Arista Technologies Kenneth Duda, the CTO, SVP of software engineering, and one of the founders of Arista Technologies. Kenneth, thank you so much and congratulations! >> Thank you so much, we're honored by the award. >> Well, it's been amazing. Outstanding Growth Award winner, congratulations. I was just looking at some of the recent earnings from Arista, nice Q4 earnings from FY-18. >> Thank you. >> Above the guidance, stock price rising this year. Last month Goldman Sachs added Arista to its conviction buy list. You guys are on nice trajectory, tell me about that. >> Well, it's just been a fantastic journey, you just don't get this many chances to participate in something like Arista from the ground up. Our growth has been driven in no small part thanks to the incredible growth of cloud computing. Cloud computing is changing the world and the cloud data centers need a different kind of network infrastructure. They need something that scales, meet their needs, and is customizable to integrate with all of their management systems, automation, and we've been able to provide that and be part of that journey, it's been incredibly gratifying. >> So you specifically talk with customers a lot, I was reading about one of your recent big wins in Canada, CBC Radio Canada facility in Montreal, but talk to me about what's some of the things now that you're hearing from customers especially those customers who are still in the process of transforming and transitioning workloads to the cloud. What are some of the things that surprise you about where customers are in any industry in this journey. >> Right, well, so I spend most of my time talking to the enterprise customers because there are so many of them and what we've learned there is a couple of things. One is they are very impacted by cloud. Cloud's a big deal, they're moving somewhere closer to the cloud, they're also building their own internal environments in a more cloud-like fashion and, as such, benefit from Arista's approach. But the most interesting thing I've learned is that neither of those is the most important thing. The most important thing is the network has got to work and it might sound strange, but networking gear isn't always reliable and what we've been able to achieve through our architectural approach and through our focus on automated testing has enabled us to produce a higher quality product which has been a major attractor of the enterprise customer. So you need to cover all those bases to succeed in this business. >> You're right, that network is absolutely essential. When anything goes down, whether it's a Facebook outage, it's world news. Tell me, what is the Arista advantage? >> The key advantage is the quality of our products. It's the fact that we have built an architecture that is more resilient to software and hardware errors. It's the way we test. We've made a tremendous investment in automated testing, so that our product has gone through hundreds of thousands of tests before it ever sees a customer. But actually the most important element behind quality, is the culture of your company, what do you believe? What's important to you? What gets you up in the morning? What are you thinking about and talking about to your employees? What's the most important thing, is it profitability? Is it making a deal, is it hitting a schedule? Or is it making sure the network works? We are 100% focused on that and it's been really gratifying to see the impact that's had. >> So last question, and thank you for speaking over the drum noise going on behind us, by the way, to get people into the auditorium. In terms of culture and the impact, what do you think this award means to your peers, your teams at Arista? >> Oh, it's just such an affirmation of the journey we've come through so far and the journey we still have ahead of us. We're very grateful for the award. >> So, I see so much momentum coming into 2019. What are some of the exciting things we can expect from Arista this year that you might be able to share with us? >> I think we're seeing a real transition from network designers focusing on the control plane of their network first to focusing on the management of the network first because management is actually the key to smooth operations. Our cloud vision product addresses that need. We're really excited about that transformation. >> Well, Kenneth, again, congratulations to Arista and yourself and your teams on the Outstanding Growth Award from ACG SV. We also thank you for spending some time with us on theCUBE. >> Thank you very much, it was my pleasure. >> I'm Lisa Martin and you're watching theCUBE. (energetic music)

Zac Mutrux, Insperity | ACG SV Grow! Awards 2019
>> (Announcer) From Mountain View, California it's the Cube. Covering the 15th Annual Grow! Awards. Brought to you by ACG SV. >> I'm Lisa Martin with the Cube, on the ground at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California for the 15th Annual Grow! Awards for the Association of Corporate Growth Silicon Valley, ACG SV. That's a mouthful. I'm here with one of the ACG SV board members, Zac Mutrux, the District Sales Manager at Insperity. Hey, Zack, it's great to have you on the Cube. >> Thank you so much, Lisa, I'm pleased to be here. >> So before we talk about what you're doing here at the 15th Annual Grow! Awards, tell our audience about Insperity. I was reading, I love taglines. >> Yes. >> And I see on your homepage, Insperity is obsessed with delivery HR mastery. Wow. >> Oh yeah. >> Obsessed and mastery. Those two words just jumped out. Tell us a little bit about what you guys do. >> Impressive, isn't it? Well, we actually just adjusted our tagline to HR that makes a difference. And that's really what it's all about. We feel like companies that are growing, if they're going to make it from good to the best, it has everything to do with the people. Attracting the best people and keeping them, developing them over time, and that's exactly what we do with our clients. >> So Insperity has been in business since 1986, and if I think of today's modern workforce, highly mobile, distributed, there's the whole on-demand industry. You guys have seen a tremendous amount of change that now can be massively influenced, and your customers can, using technology. Give me a little bit of that historical perspective on Insperity's inception and today's workforce, and how you're helping them attract and retain the best talent. >> Oh, absolutely. Well, when the company started it was in a maybe a 200 square foot room with one telephone between the two co-founders. There's no such thing as email. So, absolutely, there's been immense technological changes and there continues to be. I think that's one of the things that has been responsible for Insperity's success is its adoption of technology. Today we are as much a technology company as we are an employee benefits company, or an HR consulting company. It's really about creating a positive experience for the employees. That's part of being a competitive employer. >> Well it has to be a positive experience, right? For your customers. Because acquiring great talent is one thing, retaining them is another. And I want to kind of pivot off the retention there for a second. As the District Sales Manager, I was asking you before we went live, tell me maybe one of your favorite stories, and you said, "Wow". One of the great things, you guys are coming off great growth and FY18 revenue growth. One of the great things that Insperity has been really successful at is customer retention. And that's hard. You're proud of this. Tell us about that statistic that you mentioned, and how it is that Insperity is evolving and innovating over the last few decades to keep that retention number as phenomenal as it is. >> Well, Insperity's been named one of the most admired corporations in the country, actually, five years in a row by Fortune magazine. And that's the kind of press that you can't buy. One of the accolades that I'm most proud of is that in the past year our own employees named us one of the top 100 companies to work for in the United States. Which is, I think, the proof that we really know what we're doing with our clients. Because there are a lot of different companies out there, various competitors, and almost none of them are on that list. So, it's living our values and expressing through our service team, our extraordinary service team, that, I think, keeps our clients coming back to us year after year. About 85% renew. That's been consistent. A high level of client retention for the past three years. Even more extraordinary is that we've been growing both top line and bottom line revenue at the same time. So there's just a testament to our leadership, to our co-founder and CEO, Paul Sarvadi, and to the best of team-- >> But it sounds like it's a lot of symbiotic relationships between the internal retention at Insperity that is maybe leading through to your customers seeing, hey, there's not a high turnover here. These people are doing, they love what they're doing. They're working for a good company. So there's probably a lot of symbiotic behaviors. >> Well, that's exactly right. I think you really hit the nail of the head. It's about culture. It's a culture that starts from the top with leadership, and it filters down throughout the organization. And we're not looking to do business with every single company. We're looking to do business with the companies that believe the things that we believe. That is, companies that have high levels of commitment, trust, communication. They do better financially then companies that don't have those things. >> And along those lines, mentioning just before we wrap here, we are at the 15th Annual ACG SV Awards tonight, where they're honoring two award winners. The Outstanding Growth Award winner is Arista Networks. And the Emerging Growth winner is Adesto Technologies. I'm excited to talk to them later. But I wanted to get a little bit of perspective on you've been involved as a board member of ACSG since last year. Tell me a little bit about what makes ACG SV worthy of your time. >> Oh, absolutely. That's a great question. It's just an extraordinary community, I think, of the top leaders in Silicon Valley come together. The monthly Key Notes add a lot of value. It's an intimate setting and there's real conversations that are taking place on topics that are relevant to today's professionals. So for me to be able to engage and hopefully add some value as a board member is privilege. >> And you can hear probably a lot of those conversations going on right behind Zac and me tonight. Zac, it's been a pleasure to have you on the Cube. Thank you so much for giving us some of your time. >> Oh, right, thank you, Lisa. >> For the Cube, I'm Lisa Martin on the ground. Thanks for watching. (pop electronic music)

Shampa Banerjee, PhD, Eros Digital | ACG SV Grow! Awards 2019
>> From Mountainview, California, it's The Cube, covering the 15th annual Grow! Awards. Brought to you by ACG SV. >> Hi, Lisa Martin on the ground with The Cube at the 15th annual ACG SV Grow! Awards. At the Computer History Museum in Mountainview, can you hear the buzz of 230 plus attendees behind me? I'm very pleased to welcome one of the ACG SV board members Dr. Shampa Banerjee, technology executive, and chief product officer at Eros Digital. Shampa, thank you so much for giving us some of your time this evening. >> Thank you, it's a pleasure. >> So lots of great, innovative, and inspiring conversations, no doubt, going on behind us. >> I'm trying to listen to it. >> Yeah, so talk to us a little bit about Eros Digital, who you are, what you do. >> So Eros International is the largest studio in India. It produces or distributes around 60 to 70 percent of the films made in India, Bollywood films. So I run the streaming platform, the Netflix for Bollywood, that's what I call it. >> The Netflix for Bollywood, I love it. Now, tell us more about that. >> So, you know, it's a streaming platform, a lot of the titles are from what we produce. A lot of the titles we lease from other production houses, and that is the entire technology platform, and then how do you get to the, we connect the consumers, rather, to the entertainment, right? So we like to help them discover, we help them indulge in the whole experience, and then as they keep coming to us more and more, we personalize the experience for them, so that's really what we give them. >> You know, personalization is so key. We expect it right in our lives, and whatever it is that we're doing, we're engaging with an Amazon or a Netflix or at Eros for example, we kind of now expect that. We're sort of demanding consumers, right? We expect them to know what I want, just what I want, don't give me any things that I don't want, so is that one of the things that you've seen, maybe surprising in your career, is this increasing demand for personalization? >> Absolutely, because, you know, there's so much content out there, so much information, and unless there's a filtering mechanism that makes sense for you, people don't want to, you know, it's very hard for them, so they want you to do the work for them. It's entertainment, right? So absolutely. Everyone kind of expects it. It's not said. It's not explicit, but that's the expectation. >> And obviously, with the goal of delighting and retaining those customers, you as the chief product officer have to listen and react to that. >> I spent, I'll tell you a short story. I spent once a month going through all the customers' comments in different platforms, right? And one of the stories I read was this 17-year-old French gal in Paris, she loves watching Bollywood because she was suffering from leukemia and after she gets a treatment, she comes home, she wants to watch something that makes her happy, and we had some issues with that subtitles, and she was having a problem watching our movies and she begged "Please bring them back". And I ran out of my office, went to my team, and I said, "Guys, this is who we wake up for every day. We give her joy, we give her pleasure." So to me, that's how listening to the customers to me is primary, to me they are my biggest stakeholder, and I've told the CEO and founder that, look at the end of the day, I leave and argue with you if it doesn't serve my customers. That's what I believe, listening to the customers, listening to them, understanding, of course, we do a lot of data collection and we look at what we are doing and the patterns, and based on that we make modifications, we test different things to see what makes sense, what's working, and what's not working, because people don't always tell you, and even if you ask them, they're shy to tell you. But then you can see what they're doing, and that's an indicator. >> Well that makes you feel really good, seeing and hearing and feeling the impact that you're making, and speaking of impact, you have been, in the last minute or so that we have, you've been on the board of ACG SV for about the last five years. We're here tonight to honor Arista as the Outstanding Growth Award winner and (mumbles) Technology as the Emerging Growth winner, but really quickly, what makes ACG SV worth your time? >> So ACG honestly is a fantastic organization and you know, living in the Bay Area, there are many organizations, there are many events that are always going on, you know. ACG has been a place where I've seen it's a very, very, very, very diverse organization, of course I still wish there were more females, you know, but it's a very diverse organization, people of all ages, people from different walks of life, from different kinds of companies, you know, and people are very, very collaborative and help each other to do business. I've become personal friends with many of them, but the main thing is, you know, you come here, if you're new to the Valley especially, whether as a company or as an individual, this is one of the best places to come to because it's not too large, it's not too small, it has the right number of people, and it helps you quickly on board. They'll introduce you to people, introduce you to events, they give you what you need to kind of get started. So to me it's like, when I joined, I joined before I was on the board, almost, I don't know, seven or eight years ago, and I've seen this whole thing transform and it's just an excellent, supportive, the people are very open-minded, great ideas, and it's just an excellent organization, love it. So it's worth my time, you know, to take the extra hours, and I would love to see it get even bigger and more diverse and more interesting. >> Well it sounds like, I love how you kind of described ACG SV as being that Goldilocks type of organization, not too big, not too small, just right, but we thank you so much. I wish we had more time to talk, as a female in technology, but we'll have to have you back at the studio on The Cube! >> Thank you so much. >> Thank you so much for your time. For The Cube, I am Lisa Martin. Thanks for watching. (music)

>> from Mountain View, California It's the Cube covering the fifteenth annual Grow Awards. Brought to you by A C. G S V. >> Hi, Lisa Martin on the ground with the Cube at the Computer History Museum for the fifteenth annual TGS Grow Awards. Can you hear the collaboration of the innovation going on behind me? Very excited to welcome to the Cube, one of tonight's award winners from a Jaso Technologies, Norby, Jericho B and the President and CEO of Modesto. Congratulations on the Emerging Growth Award that adjuster has been honored with tonight. >> Thank you very much. We're very honored to be here. So you've been at >> the helm of a desert for a long time. I'd like our audience to hear a little bit from you about whom destiny is what you do. What makes you different. >> Perfect. So we are at a technology company on our products are used primarily in Internet of things, applications across many, many segments. Most off our businesses within the industrial segment on our customers use our products to actually build a Iot solutions for their end markets. Our products include semiconductor chips that are used at the edge of Coyote EJ gateway devices that connects the local networks to the more broad networks on. Basically, we enable our customers to take data from the physical world and send it up into the clouds >> to you guys. Our have had a great great trajectory, obviously being recognized by the emerging growth winner from a C. G S B. Tell me a little bit about it was looking at some information from you guys and on twenty eighteen, You guys did a great job of executing on your strategic initiatives to really make twenty eighteen a transformative year couple of acquisitions to us about the last year, in particular in the group that you have seen the momento and you're bringing into twenty nineteen. >> Correct? Correct. So we started. We enter twenty eighteen as a provider up application specific memory devices for I ot however, we realize that for our customers to take true benefit off the technologies we provide, we need to be a more holistic supplier of solutions. So as a result, we went through a whole process off looking at other technologies that can complement what we have in a very similar way, with strategic focus in the markets that we were focused, and as a result, we made two acquisitions in past summer that ended up its expanding our market opportunity, broadening our reach within existing customer and significantly expanding our offering portfolio to foreign markets. >> Negroes have a really strong position with tear one customers in the industrial sector. You mentioned that expecting Don't be a little bit more than about your leadership here in what makes these large industrial cheer. One players say Augusto is for us, >> right? So before I asked her that let me talk a little bit about the difference between industrial I ot and Consumer >> Riley's Yes, >> So if you think about consumer, I ot, it's what grabs headlines. It's the fitness trackers, the latest home smart thermostats, and the smartwatch is on so forth. The's are new markets. Volumes are girl very fast, but if next year and new shiny object is created, it's easy for the consumers to replace. They basically buy the new one. Repent replaced the old. One interesting thing about industrial I ot is that industrial I ot has this fragmented legacy systems that today run in their businesses. So if you look at the building we're in Today there is a fired and safety system that runs there's H Vac system that runs the business. There's a security systems, and this could have been installed here decades ago. There are billions of connected things in that industrial network today, but the data is unable to go up into the cloud. Where come cloud providers? Aye, aye. Providers can actually take the data on provide benefits to the business owners. We understand the language of industrial I ot very well because off our roots in that space. And we also understand this universe very well because of our roots being in Silicon Valley. So for industrial customers to benefit from this transformation, it's very important to be able to understand the OT world operational technology world of old days on the IT world that we're very familiar with. So with addition off these acquisitions that we've done this summer very well, positions with the building blocks that way can put together on offer differentiated solutions to our customers? >> Well, no, but it's been a pleasure having you on the queue. But the fifteenth annual acey GSP grow words. Congratulations to adjust of your whole team for the emerging growth award. And we look forward to seeing what happens this year in the space with you. Thank >> you. Thank you very much. Thank you. >> Lisa. Martin, you're watching the Cube. Thanks for watching.

Christie Simons, Deloitte | ACGSV Awards
>>Hi. Welcome to the Cube. I'm Lisa Martin on the ground at the Computer History Museum with the Association for Corporate Go Silicon Valley. Tonight is their 13th annual grow worth, and we're very excited to be with one of their pick sponsors. Deloitte Christie. Simon's from Deloitte. Welcome. Thank you. Great to have you here. So you are a veteran and technology. You've been in the tech industry over 25 years. You've probably seen incredible transformation. Tell us about what you're doing with Deloitte and the advisory service is not you. Offer way. Offer a number of service is advisory audit tax too in Silicon Valley to a lot of these emerging growth companies. So it's been very exciting >>in my >>career to see the evolution of what I call old technology right where we kind of got the traditional software semiconductor box companies to what is now digitally what I call a new technology and what is propelling the economy in the throat that we're seeing. Not only in Bali. Exactly. So right now you are working, leading hurt and development of Deloitte's technology practice up in San Francisco. You're working with clients and you mentioned digital and clown Internet media sectors tell us about that, especially as you mentioned new technology. So a lot of them are startup companies, which is really sweet spotted, A C G. And that's why we're so involved with a G. But a lot of these new technology companies that you mentioned, you know, cloud software service, Internet media, data security, those types of companies, eyes really propelling the digital economy. So we see a lot of growth in that sector, primarily in San Francisco but also in the broader Bay Area. Silicon being checked better and as you are you mentioned out of what's going on domestically but also internationally. How do you see the influence of Silicon Valley here in Silicon Valley as well as across the globe? You know, there's a lot of factors weigh serve companies all over the globe. So primarily, Silicon Valley is propelling a lot of those. And to the extent that companies here are international, most of a lot of multinational companies and do sell their products lovely there, developed here with products are actually sold. Are you seeing kind of the inverse where companies may be headquartered in in Europe or Asia? are influencing and bringing technology over to the Silicon Valley. Next thing, let us here. Yeah, some of that, especially as we think about, uh, engineers and the aspects and some of that development that happens there, obviously sourcing that from around interest of an industry perspective in 2017. It's like every company's tech way. Look at tests around the street. Look at Walmart Labs and what they're doing there. How are you seeing some of the clients you advise for? What are some of the industries that you're seeing are now technology? There's definitely a convergence says you mentioned Too many industries, actually, all industries. So when we think about financial service is no fintech. When you think about life sciences, health, when you think about retail, right, you got Internet. So definitely saying convergence and technology is impacting our daily lives and almost everything that we d'oh and in almost every product and service that we buy, there's some form or elements of technology. Exactly. It's really remarkable. Speaking of remarkable, tonight we're here with a C G to recognize two Fantastic Cos Twilio is the emerging growth winner, 2017 and video the Outstanding Growth Award winner. If you look at and video, for example, inventor of the GPS, which is really catalyzed a tremendous amount of technology across industries. If we were just talking about you, look at their market kind of what you see them over the next couple of years. The market drivers you think they're gonna impact mentioned and video write graphic way historically have been known for games and films and virtual reality kind of thing. Now they're actually moving more into artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence? A. I knew Buzz Word, right? So there's probably a lot of opportunities for a video that technology evolves and develops over the next. Several questions for Twilio. Who's winning the emerging world? What would you do for them? So they're, you know, cloud platform company for software developers. So you think that part of the new technology is and a cloud, so providing an opportunity for engineers to develop software and software is involved in almost everything that we do as well in our daily lives. So you know that convergence of all the industries that's happening, a lot of that is a result of software and the developers who are creating that software Twilio is providing a platform for that communicated a tremendous opportunity. Companies in this new technology. Christy, thank you so much for joining us on the Cuban. Sharing your insight. Have a great evening tonight. Yes, it's, uh, it's a great turn out Isn't a lot of fun. It is. I want to thank you for watching way around the museum with a c D E f G. I'm Lisa Martin. Thanks.

Welcome to the Cube. >>Thank you so much. >>So not only is a long time sponsor base did you get through the second biggest with the presumably a lot of options that Dylan has a sponsor and engage in communities like that. What next? A CG unique and warrant Deloitte sponsorship and active participation >>Delights been involved with a CG for over 10 years. And the reason is they collect a great group of senior leaders in Silicon Valley to talk about things that are really important. And a lot of great networks air here and make great things happen in the community. >>Excellent. And you can hear and feel the buzz of the innovation and the history of veterans in the room. We're here tonight to honor men who won the 2016 outstanding growth award, as well as Ambarella, who won the 2016 Emerging Growth Award in terms of the metrics used to select the winners, can you give us a little insight into what those metrics are and what this metrics and key criteria really mean for these types of award winners? >>One of the key metrics that we look at his revenue growth and Fitbit has had an incredible run over the last five years. But what's particularly amazing about Fitbit is they've been doing it very profitably, so it's really been a great testament to that. You can grow and grow in a profitable matter. >>And as we look at the next 2 to 3 years, in your perspective, what are some of the market drivers that you're going to see really influencing the fifth Mrs Your predictions there expect >>Fitbits and continue to be very successful. They've really done a great job from an execution perspective. They got great products and they define their brand. It's not just a just a tracker of steps. It is really a wellness brand. And that's why I think they're gonna continue to be successful. >>Same question for Amarillo in terms of emerging growth where some of the market drivers over the next two years, Amarilla will face.

Excellent. And >>what that said, Tell us what's next for Deloitte. >>Deloitte and we're diversified. Professional service is firm. I mean, people think of Deloitte as part of the Big Four, which is people think of audit Tax, I think people don't know is we're also actually were a consulting firm and an advisory firm.

Lengthen Trulia Gopro What? Your predictions >>for the next class of candidates for 2017 grow awards. That's what's really exciting about this is you don't know who's successful. Companies are. If you told me three years ago is gonna be here today, I wouldn't have necessarily thought that. Um So what's exciting about this is you get to see what is next and who's who's being successful. And it really gets to celebrate the growth of those companies.
