Where do African revenue leaders fit in this AI wave, and how do we get our share of the cake? Quite a week in enterprise tech. Chirantan "CJ" Desai steps down as MongoDB's CEO to build Meta’s enterprise AI business. Following the announcement, MongoDB’s market cap fell from roughly $33.1bn to $27bn. About $6.1bn lost in one trading session. Then former Snowflake CRO Chris Degnan joins Cognition as CRO, valued at $48bn. Chris story is very interesting 😆 Clearly, there’s value in people who know how to turn technology into enterprise revenue. But CJ’s challenge is interesting. Meta has the resources and reach, yet it’s a consumer-first business. In my humble view, building an enterprise B2B business within that environment will be tricky. Having businesses advertise on your platform doesn’t automatically mean they’ll trust you with critical operations. That trust takes time to build. For African commercial operators, what should we be doing now to position ourselves to build and lead these businesses?
