The Cybersecurity Startup Playbook

​Building a successful cybersecurity company takes more than a great idea or innovative technology. Founders have to make decisions about funding, business models, growth, and execution long before their product reaches the market. Host Gerald Auger, Ph.D. welcomes back Bryson Bort for a Firesides discussion on what it really takes to build and grow a cybersecurity startup. As the founder of multiple successful companies and an active investor in the cybersecurity ecosystem, Bryson has worked from both sides of the table, building businesses while also evaluating the next generation of founders.

​We'll discuss what investors look for, why the strongest product doesn't always become the market leader, and how founders can think about building a business that customers and investors both believe in.

​We also explore the realities of raising capital, balancing products and services, and avoiding some of the common pitfalls that can derail an otherwise promising company.

​Considering launching a cybersecurity startup, curious about venture funding, or interested in how successful security companies are built? Join us to get a practical look at the business side of cybersecurity from one of the most respected cybersecurity founders and investors in the industry.
