In this episode of The Big Exit Show we talk to Bernd Gross who founded IoT-platform Cumulocity in 2010 in Düsseldorf. He sold the company nine years later to tech giant Software AG for an undisclosed amount - but the mathematical wizards of Peak Capital will do an informed valuation of the deal at the end of the episode. You will also learn:

• How a smaller company can compete with large scale competitors like Azure and AWS
• Why you need to focus as a startup to be credible to end customers
• Why you need a M&A advisor when selling a company.

In The Big Exit Show our hosts Johan van Mil and Remy Gieling talk to tech entrepreneurs about scaling their companies and the lessons and pitfalls of a successful exit.
