martinwolf Valuation & Deal Insights
Disruptions Past and Present
Today we are publishing our first issue of Valuation & Deal Insights for 2014. In this issue, we continue refining the new format we introduced with the last issue, highlighting our unique analysis that has appeared in industry media and featuring our comments and observations of the industry around us.
For this issue, I'm pleased to announce that we feature Dave MacDonald, President and CEO of Softchoice, for our Executive Perspective interview. Over the past several years our firm has done multiple deals with Softchoice - and in doing so we have seen them transform their business to adapt to the changing market conditions.
Our Insights & Analysis section offers commentary on what were some of the largest issues of 2014, such as the continued attractiveness of cloud and managed services companies for investment and the BlackBerry's inability to reinvent itself and stem its ongoing decline. We also take a macro look at the global IT Industry and those of India and China. Finally, we end with a summary of our annual letter, listing the major disruptive industry events in 2013 and a commentary on the continued need for reinvention and change.
It's said that those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it -- and 2014 shows signs of being every bit as disruptive and momentous as the previous year.
