Tech Disruptors
Work-management platforms are being redefined by AI, new pricing models and intensifying competition. In this Tech Disruptors episode, Smartsheet CEO Mark Mader joins Bloomberg Intelligence senior software analyst Sunil Rajgopal to discuss how technology evaluation is changing in the AI era, with companies balancing “buy vs. build” decisions, and Smartsheet’s evolution from seat-based pricing to more flexible, consumption-driven models. The conversation highlights Smartsheet’s focus on specialized AI solutions to avoid commoditization, the strategic role of M&A, its vision for future product and business growth and how the company is evolving under the private ownership of Blackstone and Vista.
