Joined Carta 4 years ago today to "figure out what to do with all this cool data".
Since then, we've hit:
Dozens of published research reports
Hundreds of speaking events
Thousands of individual charts
Tens of thousands of newsletter / podcast subscribers
Millions of pageviews
Hundreds of millions of social impressions
I firmly believe this is the start of a wave of Insights teams across startups and tech marketing teams.
Wouldn't you want a team at your company dedicated to:
1. Providing data-driven value to the ecosystem at scale 2. Making all internal stakeholders smarter
That's Insights. If you're considering building such a team in your company, shoot me a DM for tips.
1 equity grant in and I still love this work, this company, and the founders and VCs we get to serve.
Waaay too many Cartans to thank here - but I appreciate all of you who follow our work for the support, ideas, signal boosts, and genuine excitement.
Onwards!
