We’re in the midst of volatile times right now. So who better to provide a true perspective on what really matters, and how to focus on building for long-term success, than one of tech go-to-market’s most experienced and accomplished leaders?

Alan Cohen has been at the forefront of game-changing tech GTM for over 30 years.
During his early days at IBM and Cisco, he was pivotal to commercialising the technology that was building the very backbone of the internet.

Following a series of VP-level product and marketing roles, helping disruptive innovators successfully upset some of the biggest tech incumbents, he rejoined Cisco, leading GTM for their $25bn Enterprise portfolio.

After 25 years in “big tech”, Alan became product leader and frontman for 4 iconic, industry-transforming start-ups, before turning investor as a partner at DCVC, where he currently works with entrepreneurs using AI and science to build breakthrough companies in parts of the economy not touched by the tech revolution.

Join Dave and Alan as they spend nearly an hour (our longest episode by a long way, but for good reason - it’s all gold!) chatting on a range of GTM-related subjects including:

  • Building the foundations of internet communication at IBM and Cisco
  • Why the psychology of why people buy and use technology is so important
  • The issues that CMOs are facing at the moment, and how to navigate them
  • Tips for challengers to dethrone the incumbents in their space
  • What makes a successful founder from a GTM perspective
