Last week I was in an online panel with Flexiant and ThinkGrid talking doling out advice for service providers who want to go cloud. Rather than the usual vendor/analyst dynamic, we managed to get an end-user, as it were, on as well, Rob Lovell, CEO of ThinkGrid.
The result was a fun discussion: we focused a tremendous amount of getting not only the proper, differentiation and asset-advantaging strategy in place, but also starting small and working iteratively to learn what will work, you know, Lean Startup style.
As summarized at the end: “in 2014 it’s not about the mission to Mars, it’s about the mission to next door.” Check out the recording here.
